April Dates

[Lou:) 110]

Hey Lou! Glad to hear your doing well...im freaking out only 2 more days for me. So far what do u feel is diff fron when u had the band surgery? Pain? Hunger? Etc

Reflux is gone so far. I'm able to drink Water in the morning... with the band I would throw up anything including water before noon. I'm still only five days post op and on liquids only. I would have a better idea when I move to regular foods.... I had a lot of gas pain but I think I walked it off today at the mall. I had to sit a few times and burped a lot. My incisions are starting to itch. When I got the band, the cut a nerve causing my left leg to go numb. I think they cut it again, because they used most of the same incision sites. My leg feels more numb than before... As far as hunger. I'm not hungry but am having a lot of head hunger. I still want the foods, but am not physically hungry. With the band I was starving all the time so that is a big difference. Hope this helps!

Lol. I had a lot more pain after the band. The only pain I'm having is really swelling and gas pain. With the band, my actual stomach hurt. I had horrible pain with drinking even tiny sips of clear liquid would make me scream out from chest pain. The bypass has been a breeze in comparison to the surgery to get the band.

Post op day 3 is a lot better than day 2. I haven't had any pain meds today. I am still sore around a couple incisions. I was able to eat most of my Breakfast, now I just got to focus on Water. I have a awful headache today. Burping hurts also.
