Lucii24 5 Posted September 19, 2013 Hi Everyone I had my gastric bypass surgery 48 hours ago & I'm hoping to be let home this afternoon. Still quite sore but first 29 hours after surgery was F**** Agony although its eases a hell of a lot now, just hurts swallowing tablets & liquids still trying to get used to doing that. It's completely eye opening & life changing as your teaching yourself how to eat again & what not to eat as well. Your also learning how to listen to yourself & learn your boundaries too. I'll keep you posted with my progress when I can. Off to have a snooze now as still feeling very tired. God bless Xx 3 Ammariehs mommy, Mid West and happiness0325 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BBdoodle 483 Posted September 19, 2013 Each day gets better and better, continue to take pain meds, rest and walk, walk, walk to eliminate the gas 1 Lucii24 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amanda R 56 Posted September 19, 2013 it took until today (had surgery on the 16th) to finally get rid of the back pain caused by gas. 1 Lucii24 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lucii24 5 Posted September 20, 2013 Thanks everyone for the advice particularly about the gas & the walking. So far don't appear to be getting much gas but my foods are mainly consisting of Soup & milk shake. Broken sleep seems to be an issue still although I've always suffered with broken sleep. But I am feeling tired in waves & bouts but I think I need to push myself a lil more to stay out of bed & keep mobile. Hope your all doing well following your surgery's & any advice or opinions are more than welcome. Kindest Regards Lucii Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
