Hi Everyone!

Just a quick update, Had my RNY yesterday and am still in the hospital. I am doing well, pain is managed and I have been able to get some Fluid in. Might get to go home later.

The only excitement was that the entire hospital lost power for 45 minutes right in the middle of my surgery! I guess they quickly unplugged everything and plugged into a generator. I, of course, didn't know any difference. LOL!

Anyway, glad to be on the other side and I will update later. :)

Sending good wishes to all my June surgery siblings!

I am miserable from survey yesterday. Mostly just nausea and vomiting more than pain. I can't get many fluids down.

Glad to hear you're doing well! Sounds like definitely some excitement during your surgery! lol I'm surprised hospitals don't have automatic failover to generator power...especially for ORs. Glad everything went smoothly! :)

They put torodol in my iv and it seems to be helping more than the the other anti nausea meds. I have had a sugar free popsicle and Water.< br>
Surgeon said my liver looked good. Hopefully I can go home later

This is good news. I'm sure the popsicle and the meds will help.

So now I’m on pre-op liquids. Have found it boring, but I can survive it.

Just got home! Had RNY surgery yesterday. I couldn't be happier. No nausea, practically no pain, and am able to drink Water without difficulty. Apparently, I had a hiatal hernia that needed repairing, too.

The only weird thing so far is that I can't burp intentionally like I used to in order to release air after drinking. I have to wait until my stomach decides the time is right, then it finally just happens. A little uncomfortable but certainly not worrisome.

That's encouraging! Wishing you continued success and fast healing.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
