Day 4 post op and I don't want to kill myself!



Recommended Posts

For the first time since I got home from the hospital, I can say that I'm feeling great. The gas pains in the chest are minimal, and I've been off pain meds since yesterday. Energy level is low, but the pain has changed to a dull annoyance. What a wonderful thing to be thankful for on this Thanksgiving day.

How is everyone else doing?

Glad to hear things are improving. It really went from awful to great in a matter of just a few days for me!

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
