Hi Everyone,

How did all the Biactric beauties go in their first week post op?

I got home yesterday and was happy to be home

Please tell of your stories so i can see if we experienced something similar. I went in for the RnY but i came out with the Omega loop bypass.

At first i freeked out bc after researching in my hospital bed it was commonly called the mini bypass and i thought instantly oh no less weight loss!!!

My doctor assured me that the weight loss for both RnY and Omega are essentially the same and that he can not ell weather a patient has had one or the other until he checks their files so im ok with this.

He has also said there is less chance of bowl obstruction or twists but a slightly higher chance of reflux but worse case scenario he can do a very minor surgery to correct this. Also dumping is less apparent with the Omega loop im glad about that and i did not need a band to support my pouch and my pouch is a bit longer and has enough resistance alone without the band. All in all im ok with it.

Coming out of surgery in recovery was very bumpy for me and i wanted pain killers STAT. After that was sorted my pain leveled out quite quickly and althought they were giving me that oral morphine pill i felt that Panadol or Tylenol was enough as the hillbilly heroin was making me feel very sick and head floaty (im not sure how ppl become addicted to these pills they make me feel yuck).

So im on day 4 evening now and im basically pain free but feeling nauseous wen i eat and i am very very tired often. I think im doing ok but i am very aware of every feeling that happens to me.

I am getting over a liter of fluids in per day and seem to be reaching my 60g of Protein ok with the powder supplements and the Optifast shakes.

Im very interested to hear how everyone else went

I had mine on the 13, things have been going well. I had a complete hysterectomy and bypass then same morning. I have not had issues with nausea or pain. I have been off pain medications since after my surgery. I did have an issue with beef broth, with cause some issues.

I have had zero draining from any wounds as of yet.

My biggest complaint is my thirst, the ability to smell better than a bloodhound.
