abbster_tee 9 Posted September 30, 2018 Today is the first day I feel functioning. I took our golf cart down to the lake and am enjoying some tea and the views. Cold Water isn’t killing me anymore and the pain in my stomach is only dull. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But better than the first few days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissPoodle 58 Posted September 30, 2018 I'm finding i can have days with almost no pain or nausea then another day can be nauseous nearly all day without any big changes in what I'm eating. Is anyone else finding the same thing?Sent from my SM-G950F using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
planochick 22 Posted September 30, 2018 Yes. Yesterday was a turning point I thought. Washed my hair, my daughter drove me to the grocery store and I scooter around on a power chair. 😂 was happy to be out of the house. When I got home I hit a wall and just had to take pain and nausea meds. Ugh! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m totally going to jinx myself but I’ve actually been on the up and up. Yesterday I walked half a mile and today I walked a mile. My tennis shoes finally fit comfortable and my sports bra doesn’t feel like it’s about to impale me. 1 Liz The New Me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once we got home though I was exhausted and nauseous. But I'll tell you, a shower and hair washing does wonders to make you feel better, doesn't it? 1 cindih576 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

H2neal 40 Posted October 1, 2018 I was feeling pretty good too. Yesterday went to church and then decided to go to Walmart and get a few items. Came home after and Now I feel yucky. No nausea just tired and my abdomen is itching something awful. Been scratching around my 5 incisions. But I keep getting like a stomach spasm or something. Not sure if it is a hunger pain that turns into a spasm or just a spasm. But it hurts and kinda feels like it is trying to push stuff back up esophagus. Then it passes. Then minutes later it does it again. It does it for little bit then subsides. So not sure if gas hunger or just stomach itself. Has anyone else had this? 2 Liz The New Me and Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven’t had that but my doctor gave me a prescription in case of spasms so it must be fairly common. My left lower side hurts terribly today. Everything else is good but man it feels like a knife stabbing me in that lower side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
