I had my surgery yesterday as well as scar tissue from the band/adhesion ans a large hital hernia repared.

Reactions to sedation- cant pee so I've had a cath. Today vomiting up dried blood from surgery and still npo except ice chips.

This is a lot rougher than the band and band removal.

They should give you something so you don't vomit. Please ask about that.

My understanding is vomiting is bad for the pouch and staples in there.

Sorry you had a reaction that's to bad.

Once you can have liquids and can get up out of bed each day will get a little easier for you until the surgery will be a distant memory.

Remember if you're not sure about something or something their doing ask what's if for or the purpose of it. You are the one in control.

Feel better and rest as much as you can.

Oh No! I had my band out yesterday and know how I'm feeling. But that was about 34 hours ago and I'm feeling better every few hours or so with the help of my meds. With that said, I still have to go through RNY after I heal. that sounds a little scary. Take care, I hope it gets better soon.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
