32 hours post op and feeling good



Recommended Posts

I had some pain from the surgery and some mild nausea that was handled with meds. I was very happy to hear I list 17lbs during shake week. I leave the hospital tomorrow mid day and am looking forward to being home.

The areas where I was cut are sore as they cut through the nerve endings, which is expected.

I walk laps around the ward to stay active. As the private room is lonely. The extended family came for a visit and could feel my blood pressure rising. But overall it's been a great experience.

Awesome, I had zero pain at all, and was convinced I was given a placebo surgery! Doctor said a lot are like us, but we just hear more about the others, which is a shame. I was in the hospital less than 24 hours and have had zero issues with pain, or incisions since (yes in America). I honest was back to normal after the second day home, I took it easy as suggested, but easy pesy for me. I also have zero scares from incisions. How they get the rest of the stomach out of those little cuts is a marvel of modern medicine. Hope everything continues being great for you

The worst part of the pain is the incision points as they cut through the abdomen muscles. Whenever I use the to stand, sit, or bend over I feel it.

      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.
