Taoz 284 Posted May 4, 2018 Ack, in pain this morning, not from my incisions but from my IV line! Forearm felt a bit sore in the early hours of the morning so I called a nurse to check that all was fine. She reassured me it was ok and I must have been laying/leaning on it awkwardly in my sleep. When I woke a few hours later at 7 though it was REALLY sore, and quite hard and swollen. During the night the IV to had moved out of the vein and was pumping fluids into my arm. Very ouchy. They removed the line immediately and I went and has my shower. They are waiting on the anaesthetist to stop by late morning and put a replacement one in my other arm (since I'm not getting much Fluid in by mouth yet, I have to be really careful around swallowing tablets with a minimum of Water to prevent it coming up again. The endone they gave me about 30 minutes ago has at least reduced the pain for now. Has pains are now minimal and I'm trying to walk a lot while I'm not stuck dragging my IV with me at the moment. Blood pressure is recording a bit high overnight and this morning, but that may be because of IV issue. Still not feeling hungry thankfully, but will work to get more water and Protein water in today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Normaj3443 40 Posted May 4, 2018 Unfortunately I wasn't able to be sleeved on May 1st as my insurance chose to deny the day before. They want me to do another three months, noting that I have followed the program and lost weight prior. So it looks like I'll be in July/September.Were u approved before that or they just denied uSent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jules1 51 Posted May 4, 2018 Had my surgery may 2 and have to say its been a struggle. Had bad nausea and pain post op and then Migraine hit for last 24 hrs. If i can be rid of that I'll be happy. Tolerating thin fluids ok. Just having apple juice and broth really. 🤞home in morning. Missing my boys despite a visit each day. My 3 yr old starts pretend sneezing and saying he's sick when he's here as he wants to stay in with me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will have my surgery, a RnY at OSU.in Columbus Ohio, when- only God Knows I think I’ll stick to Sioux Falls... although I have been considering a shoulder tat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
