Sleeved yesterday and everything went well



Recommended Posts

I guess the unfortunate half of piece of pizza that I broke down and ate my 3rd d ay before surgery did not hurt because when they weighed me befor emy operation I had already lost 20 pounds and he said my liver was very small. I woke up feeling extremely bad. I literally felt like I was about to have a heart attack but after walking around and sipping on Water and burping the gas has now subsided. I can feel my sore belly move around every time I move but even that is going away, I feel like my future is so much bright her and if I lost 20 pound before my surgery there is no way i cannot reach my goals after.

Hmmm... I thinking maybe just yours BUT now I want to ask my doc to do the same lol. I work in the medical field and don't get grossed out by that kind of stuff. It would be cool to see how much is removed.

More importantly!! I'm glad to hear everything is going well and I wish you a speedy recovery. :)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
