October 22nd surgery buddies?

[brown eyed gal 59]

I had my rny Oct 22nd, haven't posted much because haven't felt like it. I would like to see how other people are doing with my same surgery date. I'm 55. Stayed in hospital 2 nights, I'm on oxygen 24/7 for at least two weeks because of low oxygen level. I'm on liquid Protein meals now.

I had mine the same day, over the weekend even though I can't get much down I felt like super woman even going to the zoo in Sunday , today I crashed a bit with exhaustion. (Could be my monthly cycle too) but I just became completely exhausted.

Wow, I am so impressed. I also had surgery on Oct 22 and had quite a bit pain initially then persistent nausea. Today is the first day I can keep fluids down.

So far I've had runny cream of wheat, refried Beans w/cheese, & egg beaters and no problems yet. Fingers crossed!

Is everyone crushing their meds or swallowing whole?

[cavery77 39]

I am not crushing. My pills are small and only have two I take. If it is bigger than a pencil eraser they need to be crushed my doc told me. Everyone is different though

[brown eyed gal 59]

I don't have to crush my pills but none are large.
