Mel7 47 Posted October 29, 2013 OMG nay91. It so is! I'm feeling a lot better after lots of Fentanyl and sleep. You ok? Xxxx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nay91 1 Posted October 29, 2013 My body didn't really get along with either the endone and morphine they gave me or the anaesthesia because I had to have 3 anti nausea shots throughout the afternoon, and at one point I started to throw up and nothing but a lot of continuous burping happened which was so painful. And now I'm too scared to take painkillers incase they make me nauseas again. Hopefully this doesn't last long but I'm sure it'll be worth it in the end.

Hey Nay91, you could try and ask your MD if they would give a script for quick dissolve Zofran. It breaks down on the tongue and is a liquid by the time you swallow it. It is a great drug for nausea, one of the best. Oh, btw, I just got home from the hospital and I feel pretty darn good. I have already walked a few blocks twice today and I will go on a 3rd after dinner. Grats on your new life everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mel7 47 Posted October 30, 2013 Glad it went well for you Carvinplayer. I'm home. Feeling ok. I told my surgeon I felt like I had been kicked by a horse. He said so long as it was only a small horse! 1 Carvinplayer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nay91 1 Posted October 30, 2013 I did have some kind of dissolvable nausea tablet after I forced them to take out the drip haha. I went home on Tuesday (same day as my surgery) and just felt so awful until today thank god! Can't wait till I'm completely pain free and can lay down properly though. Glad you girls didn't have such a bad experience with It. X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mel7 47 Posted November 2, 2013 Get well soon Nay91. I'm day 5 now. Hugely bruised but off painkillers and starving!!! I could eat the horse that kicked me!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nay91 1 Posted November 2, 2013 I'm feeling so good now Mel, I do get the occasional pain which I think is hunger but I'm finding it ok to ignore, I do really feel like eating though haha. But I'm already 5kg down so it's so worth it! How long until you can move on to purée and mushies mel? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mel7 47 Posted November 2, 2013 liquids for 2 weeks so mushies on 13 November. How about you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mel7 47 Posted November 18, 2013 How's everyone doing? I'm on mushies now. Week 3 postop. Weight loss totally stalled. I believe it's a thing, the 3 week stall. 1 Carvinplayer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carvinplayer 5 Posted November 18, 2013 Regular food for me. It seems really easy to eat pretty much everything. I am not getting as much Protein as I would like but so far so good. I've been hitting the gym every other day and spending a minimum of 30 minutes on the elliptical machines and taking walks on the other days. My biggest complaint is I can't burp! I hate it! But if that is the price I must pay then so be it. I hope everyone is doing well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
