How are you feeling so far?

[Emilie.Lancaster 189]

I ended up in the ER the night of the surgery and admitted for two days. I couldn't get pain relief from the oxy+acet. I needed stronger narcotics. IV fluids, nausea, and pain meds helped. Home yesterday and slept away much of the day which became up all night which is working itself out today. The pain meds now are fine. Urine is a good color, so my hydration is okay. Got some Liquid Protein in me, but not enough. Walked a bit around the home depot and was naptastic after. Tomorrow promises to be better still. You?

Why we're you in the ER? Was it done outpatient?

Yes. Outpatient. How it is most often done at this practice. Most folks do fine, I couldn't get ahead of the pain, and I vomit with extreme pain, so you can see how that would spiral out of control quickly. Was a bit shocky, too. Not my finest hour....

Emilie sorry to

Hear you had some troubles! For the most part I'm ok. I'm playing it safe with the amount of physical activity still but other than that I'm good. I'm walking, drank about 50 ounces of Water today and some protein. No complaints.

My sleeve was also 12/7. Was in hospital for 4 days due to nausea. Home now though. Belly and insistions sore. Otherwise good. Hope u are doing better.

Well, I overdid it yesterday; paying for it today. I find sitting up on my own is easier, but I am dizzy and the nausea is back. I didn't have to take a nausea pill yesterday. Swallowing is easier. So... I am going to wander over to the couch today and repent.

Are you able to keep any fluids down?

[Emilie.Lancaster 189]

Yes, fluids are not a problem. I can feel them slide all the way down and sometime gush through the pylorus. I can, if I think on it and take the pacing just so, I can drink 2 cups of broth over about a 30 min period. Has to be Clear Liquids, but it runs right on down. Today, just one narcotic pill and that was after my walking around.
