I had surgery this morning. Post op was really hard for me. Got to my room and things slowly started getting better. I took about 5 laps throughout the day in the halls. The only thing that is bugging me to no end is the anesthesia. I've been burping a lot, but it seems like every time I get back to my room from a walk, I have terrible neck pain from the gas. To me it's about 100% more painful than my stomach. Anyone have any ideas? The last attack was the worst. Will it get better soon?

I have problems with anesthesia. They give me a lot of meds for it. I have never had gas pains so IDK what that's like. I am sorry. But I am so happy to read of someone's surgery today!!! Best recovery to you!

Congrats on your surgery!!! Hope everything gets better with your pains. Try to see if they will give u a heating pad. I had one on my shoulder and neck after my gall bladder surgery and it helped so much. The nurses told me to use it. I didn't have the pains with my rny but was prepared for it anyway. I agree they are horrible and can be worse then the actual surgery. Good luck and hope that helps.

I was doing well all day yesterday, but then I started draining like crazy. I had to have 2 blood transfusions. My doctor said it was because all of the blood thinners during surgery. I feel a little better this morning, but I'm dying for some water! Hopefully tonight!
