Pain after RNY surgery



Recommended Posts

Hello All,

Its been a while since I posted because I have been recovering from my RNY on 9/11. I am still having a lot of pain three weeks out. I read that some people don't get pain at all. Anybody still have pain and if so how are you handling it?

Thanks,

Most of the pain that I experienced was immediately after the surgery and walking reduced this pain significantly.

Hey there. I’m one week out. I have had so much pain, but I’m learning to make sure to drink as much Protein as you can, because your body needs it to heal. I also walk up and down my stairs to get to my room, and I drink lots and lots of Water as I can. I also finally stopped taking my pain killer last night. I woke up feeling so refreshed and noticed a dramatic difference in pain in my tummy. Walked down my stairs with no pain and no effort. All you can do is your best. Sorry you’re still in pain. It really sucks, I know.

Was yours laparoscopic?

Mine was and the only pain I had was in my back from the massive hiatal hernia he had to repair before he could do my RNY.

I do remember a month or so after I had awful gas pains.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
