I had mine on the 30th and should be getting out of here today!! I can't wait. I some dull pain in my left side and it hurts when I take a deep breath but I'm refusing my pain meds. They taste terrible & it makes me gag which is worse than the pain I have.

Hear you on the breathing pain. My surgeon said walking will def help as you need to breathe deeper when exercising.

Meds are gross but serve their purpose but when you get home you can take another soluble pain med.

My deep breathing is a lot better now. I've almost got all of the gas out but I can still fill it bubbling. Lol. When I picked up all my medicine I had the pharmacist put a flavor in it, it's still nasty but nothing like before!!

I hope you are doing well. I got to come home today.

I had my sx on the 24th and that nagging side pain thathurts when you breath for me lasted until about day 8 but got better everyday as long as I walked...good luck

Ok friends ...I need to vent a minute. My pouch is finicky. Only getting 40-60g of Protein. Some days less. Not enjoying Protein Shakes. They make me want to hurl. Anyone ever go to a whole food place and see what they have for protein? I'm desperate. My creatinine is low and that can indicate a protein deficiency. Aaarruuggggh!
