July surgery

July 20

[Ms. K FLA 2]

Surgery Day was Wednesday and nothing take good. I came home today and got in the bed, one of the incision is giving me the blues. Plus I'm still high from the pain medication, no more.

That stinks! I have had a very smooth recovery. I didn’t need any pain medication at all. I have no nausea. Only issue I have is I am going on my 8th day with no #2. Started Miralax today. Hope it gets better for you

Is anyone having back pain post op? I’m not sure if it’s because of the bed or gas ? But it’s hard to get rid off

[Kcchick 11]

I’m 7 days post op. I have no pain at all. Some soreness if I bend over or sit for too long.

4 Days post op. Managing the pain the gas even stomach cramps. What am having a problem with is all the food commercials. Of course can’t do a lot so watching tv. I have never paid attention to the commercials but now it’s like every other one is food. It’s making me so hungry.

I hear you. Almost three weeks post op. Red lobster commercial gets me every time. Uggh.

I’m 4 days post op. I have chest pain and can’t breathe deep due to a collapsed lung that happened during surgery. Had this happened to anyone else? Also, when they pulled the drainage tube, it was the worst pain of my life. I know eventually it will be worth it, but I’m hurting right now.

Praying for a speedy recovery.

My MD recomeneded 64 oz. Water daily. However that is to include the coffee/tea etc. that you drink that day. I have had no trouble consuming that much since my surgery on 7/18/18, but I drank A LOT of water/fluids daily prior to surgery

I could easily drink 100 oz prior to surgery..with the sleeve, I'm lucky to get in 20 oz...

[Kcchick 11]

Same here. I loved Water pre surgery but I’ve yet to get all my Fluid in. 9 days post op today.

My surgery was the 24th. I had no nausea, but the gas pains were terrible. I also ended up with a partially collapsed lung from misplacement of the breathing tube, but the worst pain for me is the left shoulder. Does anyone else have this issue?
