ami23 7 Posted August 5, 2016 I finally feel a bit normal today aside from the Constipation :-(. I am even a bit hungry and able to drink more than an oz of liquid every 20-30 mins. Still recovering and incisions itch but getting there. Total difference from how I felt yesterday- all of the gas from surgery left my system finally and became accustomed to a routine. Haven't taken anything for pain since Tues. Morning, it has mostly been discomfort, not pain. Hope everyone is doing well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corr1970 26 Posted August 5, 2016 That's awesome ami23 sounds like your doing really great. I think the gas was the most uncomfortable thing of all, have you weighed yet? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plates 3 Posted August 6, 2016 I had 8/1 surgery date also. Yesterday was by far the worst for pain. Today was better, I even ventured out in public for a brief time. Now my main annoyance is my midsection feels tight and I'm fast walking to the bathroom at least every 2-4 hours. Hope that's not a forever side effect.
