Today was my surgery!

[sleeved.tekee 18]

I had surgery today n when I woke up it felt like I was having a heart attack. Chest pains was unbelievable. Still dosing in and out all I could remember me saying,"Help, Help". I can't breathe. My chest was hurting so bad with every breath I took. They did a ekg, n checked my cardiac enzymes to make sure it wasn't my heart. But they were sure it was gas. Since then my chest pains have gotten better but still hurts. All I want to do is burp. A big loud burp. But I can't. Other then that everything went well. Not in much pain in my stomach. N I have been sleeping all day .

Sorry you felt that. Glad you are feeling better.

That was me except the pain was gas in my stomach and I was asking for pain meds! I kept asking if he actually did the procedure. I was in disbelief it actually happened!

I would love to burp right now! Unfortunately I can't.

I slept so much I didn't eat.

It gets better!

I had my worst gas pains today, 6 days out. My sister had prepared me saying to lift my feet above my head. You can arrange the hospital bed that way. It also helps to lay on your left side. I have to say, lifting my legs up high today really helped ease that brutal pain.

Make sure you are up walking - I had really bad pain in my chest and shoulders and back and the walking helped it a lot! Good luck! I'm only a week out but feeling pretty good!

I am 6 days out and finally the heartburn and bubbling is gone. I can drink easier just had diarrhea after some gaterade. Stick to sugar free and it helped with the diarrhea. Gas x, Mylanta and Zantac helps a lot. I had a egg Soup, I want some scrabble eggs and later some mash sweet potatoes. I have to drink something all the time to stay full. What would be filling I could have?
