Don't worry-you've got this.

I just had my RNY 9 hours ago & my pain is about a1 or 2 out of ten. Mostly sore throat from being intubated & pain when using abdominal muscles to sit up. No nausea, & I've had 108 ounces of water/protein shake already.

I feel WAY better than I anticipated, reading the posts on this forum. So maybe you'll be lucky like me!. (I had lots of people praying for me, & I was anointed w/ Oil of Unction at my church-maybe that's what did it. :)

Hi all, I might be discharged today just waiting for my doctor. The first day wasn't bad, but at night it was for me. I'm finally on Clear Liquids only waiting for my doctor to advance me to full liquids. Other than that, I'm walking around and just have pain and soreness when using abdominal muscles. Other than that, I want to go home.

      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.
