ewms 57 Posted May 3, 2018 Had my surgery this morning and I'm now resting at home. Feeling really good. I have a heating pad on my back to see if it'll assist in the gas pain. But it's not a big deal. And my surgeon commented on how nice and small my liver was.

Frustr8 7,886 Posted May 4, 2018 Ditto to the above- I alas am still in the minor leagues, on the When Is It Ever Going to Happen team, waiting my call up to the Big Leagues of Bariatric Surgery. Packing my duffle bag of goodies, lining up Protein Shakes on my pantry shelf, yes the very-same shelf where the cookie packages, chips, pretzels and chips(crisps to my Commonwealth cousins() and bottl3s of soda used to set. There is one dusty package of Cheezits at,one end, still unopened. Attention Bariatric Team Managers aka Surgeons, please call,or text me, my info is on that 15 foot sign in my front yard with the floodlight shining on it. I got a rebate from American Electric Power for the extra power,reminded them with lower grocery bills I can pay them more promptly.😆And somebody said I don't plan ahead? 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ewms 57 Posted May 4, 2018 Maybe it's just the meds talking here, but I feel great. No pain. I can sleep on either side. I'm tolerating liquids just fine. Walking around the house to get moving. The anti-nasea meds make my very very sleepy so I'm reasting and NOT overdoing, but I feel like I could face the real world today if I needed to.
