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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
