amyemer 4 Posted September 8, 2017 Awesome!!!! I'm still waiting on a confirmation on my surgery date but due to high confidence in my surgeon I started the liquid diet. Can I ask what meds you've had to take for surgery? I know I was prescribed norco, compazine, an anti acid and something else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can I ask what meds you've had to take for surgery? I know I was prescribed norco, compazine, an anti acid and something else. Sure. I was only taking Protonix prior to surgery. Came home with Protonix, ondansetron for nausia, Lovenox for blood clots, carafate(coats stomach), then I also have a scar cream and lidocain lotion for pain.Sent from my Nexus 6 using BariatricPal mobile app 1 amyemer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HeidiGross 4 Posted September 9, 2017 Hi there! I had my bypass on 9/5 and would love some additional support! I'm in Upstate NY. Doing pretty well except for an incredibly irritating cough! Keeps me up so I haven't really had a good night sleep. Other than that everything went great and felling exponentially better each day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mismrk07 5 Posted September 10, 2017 I did it!!! Gastric Bypass was done yesterday morning. Spent last night in hospital and tonight I'm in my own bed. I won't lie, there is some pain but seems to be well managed with meds. Getting in and out of bed is the worst! Any movement hurts but today it is better than yesterday and I'm hopeful that continues. I passed swallow test and was told that if I tolerate clears tomorrow I can add shakes to full liquid diet.

If they put a tube down your throats that could explain the cough. Are you still on liquids? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
