@@sgibbs That's great. Well also had my surgery done. WednesdayThis is not to scare anyone. Dr. Goldstein who was my surgeron make five holes in me to work my stomach. The largest one was the length of a quarter. Ingrid, this will give you idea what to look for because I noticed that when you look at other pictures they seem larger when they are really not. I didn't have much gas. It was my stomach itself that was more pain. I was given pain meds when I was in recovery but it was extreme. I even shock Mike who was with me when I ask them to give something stronger. I usually suck it when I am in pain but the pain unbearable. Therefore I given 2mgs of Dilaudid every two hours. After surgery listen to your body know when you need meds and when you are doing to muchMy surgeon's office called me, they had perfect timing. I was having a hard time swallowing. I was fine yesterday but today I went to eat 4 ozs of chicken broth and 3ozs of jello. The jello went down fine but broth was bothering the hell of out of me. I was popping Tums for reflex. Only helped for a little bit. They called me just in time. Here I had a high hiatus hernia. He fix the problem but it's going to be harder to swallow and eat anything, so for now I have to stay on a liquid diet until Sept 4 when I see him. He said he did a little extra work on me. I am only allow to take in 2-3 ozs at a time. He is talking about me doing clear liquids for two weeks before going into full liquidsOk I had to talk about the gas. I was hoping I was lucky and didn't have to worry about gas. Hell no wasn't that lucky. It finally showed its wrath. OMG....the pain. I did the gas-x, walking, prayering, and the rubbing of my stomach....nothing worked. So finally I made my self some orange spice tea and headed to bed. Now anyone who knows Mike, knows he is an asshole when he farts, just damn right rude and nasty. While payback is a bitch and it was being served last night bedside service. The gas finally passed but I made sure my butt was out of blankets. Let it rip and hide under blanket until I heard Mike yelling APRIL..... roflmbbao

No problem @@Sonnie456 there are so many wonderful people on the page. I look at it to be a blessing to be able to reach out others who are going through the same thing.

@@Pinkgirl1234 Dr Goldstein is very good. I haven't had a problem him so far. But he is the type of doctor who likes everything do to the t. Which is very good. Just stay on Eva because she will be the one sending all your paperwork. Make you get copies of all your paperwork just in case Eva never gets them. Ask all the questions you and don't be afraid to ask. I have my surgery on August 26 with him. If you any other questions I havr a private group with a lot of people who also had Dr Goldstein. https://www.facebook.com/groups/AprilsBariatricSurgery/
