Had my surgery (RNRGB) at 8 am on 1/7... Surprisingly not much pain now. Went on 2 walks and breathing normally. I'm super excited for this journey!

I was jan 7 @ 9 30 am, I was all star patient, went walking for over an hour did everything with a smile..... Until it came to fluids, apparently my throat was too swollen from have a tube down durning surgery, and I was unable to keep fluids down. I was very discouraged and the nurses were pushing so hard for me to drink past the pain.... Then The vomiting started and I was anxious and a little scared, I refused to drink anything after the last time I got sick and went to bed early At eight feeling confused and beaten... Woke up this morning sore everywhere but am now able to get fluids down and am so thrilled that within two hours I have kept down 20 oz of fluid! I feel great and hopefully going home today and will be in my low home able to get all these tubes outta my arm and just relax and take care of myself! Good luck Hun I hope you are doing much better then I was!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
