Had vsg this past Tuesday still in severe pain. Anyone else?



Recommended Posts

Hey guys and gals,

I have my vsg this past Tuesday. I’ve been in severe pain (8 on a 10) since surgery. If it’s not the gas pains still killing me (walking helps, but it’s still there) than the incisions (7 made) and muscle soreness are doing it. The doctor gave me oxycodone at home, which is helping minimal. Did anyone else vomit blood the night after surgery? I did, but my doctor said it was not unusual. Anyone else feel this amount of pain? If you did, when did it go away? Any other tips? Thank you

Hello, I feel your pain and yes I had RNY Sept 4th and was in terrible pain after surgery, but the good news it will get better. I promise you if you can keep it together for the next 30 days you will feel 100% better. Goodluck dear.

Had revision surgery on 11/19 ,and the pain has some good days and some bad days. I take tylenol every 6 hours and rest as much as possible. One day at a time.

I also had my VSG surgery Tuesday and am in a lot more pain than I was in the hospital.
Gas pains are slowly tapering off but the incisions and muscle pain are awful, particularly upon getting out of bed.
I opted for no pain meds and am totally regretting that now. Although, I'm having a hard enough time swallowing the other medications I take.
I'm sorry it's not getting better yet but I'm hoping in a few days this will be a distant memory for both of us!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
