Hi all. I came home a few hours after my procedure today, but those of you staying overnight, pack a heating pad!! I never get gas pains from laparoscopic surgery but this one was pretty intense with abdomen, sternum, and back pains from the gas. The heating pad helps to break that up. Just a tip for ya’ll. Thanks.

Don't they give you anything for the gas?

They do, but for me it was some next level gas pains, interestingly enough everyone in recovery room was dealing with it so I wonder if the OR team over inflated for the day? lol

OMG! I just about spit my Water out. I am scheduled for the 30th. Should I ask for less tire pressure? lol

I’m scheduled for my surgery on Monday, April 12th. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous as hell. I’m a huge emetophobe (fear of vomiting), and although I’ve mastered only eating tiny bites every few minutes, I’m worried that my life is going to be ruled by nausea. My mother had a gastric bypass ten years ago, and watching her struggle with her diet and symptoms has definitely scarred me. To be honest, she’s still an overweight person in a thin person’s body. She eats candy several times a day, and is constantly complaining about feeling run down and sick to her stomach. If anything, she’s shown me how NOT to act after my surgery. Still, I’m worried. The nutritionist even said that “nausea will be your new ‘feeling full.’” Have you guys found this is the case? Any additional advice would be awesome. Thanks in advance. ❤️

I have not heard that before. I sure hope not. But I have heard that eating sugar will make you feel sick if you eat a lot.

I have not vomited today at all. Also, feeling nauseous has been pretty mild. I know everyone is different, but that has been my day so far. The stomach cramps and gas pains have been the most uncomfortable so far. I use peppermint oil on my wrist and when I feel a bit sick to my stomach I take a small whiff and it helps.
