Had Surgery Yesterday - Doing Great!



Recommended Posts

Hi Friends! I just wanted to update everyone on my surgery. I had it yesterday morning (they also fixed a hernia I didn't know I had). Anyway, it wasn't bad at all! I got up as soon as I was able to and walked and waked and walked. That helped SOOO much! I'm a bit sore, but I know that will get better. I slept on my recliner because it was hard to get in & out of bed. But so far, so good!! I'll keep you posted! :wink2::thumbup:

I agree with previous post. I had surgery Monday, and went shopping yesterday that knocked me out last night. Feel great this morning though! Taking it easy is always best while our body heals.

:smile:I'm glad your feeling good. I had my surgery done on the 29th !! That day will always have a special place in my mind!

Is your port site more sore then the rest of your body or is the gas pains bad? I think I've finally gotten most of the gas out of my body. Thank God!

My port site is sore and that's probably the worst of my pain. I actually didn't have any "gas issues" or pain as of yet. I had a little in my shoulder but I walked it off. Keep in touch!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
