You need to contact someone. I dont understand why they release someone and your pain is not under control. Are you able to drink?

I’m barley drinking anything. When I drink two sips I get nauseous and feel like I’m gonna puke!! It’s horrible.

I think I feel better pain wise. I don’t like taking pain meds because I don’t like being “high” so I barley take any meds so I’m sure that has everything to do with my pain. I thought I would be able to drink?? I’m so thirsty

I had RNY surgery Monday and today is Friday... & finally moved some of that dreaded gas!!!!

Had an appointment at the Dr’s office yesterday with the 3 other patients that had surgery Monday, I was the only gastric bypass, they were all sleeved, I was the worst for wear. But only 2 pain pills since out of the hospital. Drain was taken out yesterday also and everything is better being home!!!

Drinking my shakes and waters is going slow but it is going much better every day! Next Friday is the next appointment with my surgeon and will start soft foods.

On the road to a better life

      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.
