Glad things went well! I'm still very sore, and having a hard time getting all my water down. Lots of pain on left side stomach and back. Hopefully it gets better soon.

Hi everyone!! Surgery went better than expected!! The hardest part was not getting any sleep the night before surgery, & only 2 hrs. at the hospital. Very tired. My first sips of Water & Protein mix made me a little nauseous in the hospital, but other than that I did really well. Got home yesterday afternoon feeling really good but very tired. The hard part is drinking water & your protein mix. They gave me 5 -1oz cups to put my protein & water in. Drinking 2 of protein mix & 3 waters to be finished in 1 hour. Then I walk after I have those down around the house. Your time is spent sip sip sip you can't take the whole 1 oz at one time, thats what makes it so time consuming, you have to wait a couple of minutes to take the next sip. then walk take Vitamins pills etc. I don't know how anybody could work or take care of other's during this 2 week time. My incision's are very minimal with no pain. My stomach slight pain, but I put a heating pad (not too hot) on it & it helped. One thing I did that didn't feel so good, I took pain meds when I went to bed last night. You can have 1or 2, so I thought I need sleep terribly & I took 2, one at a time, I waited 5 min. to take the 2nd one. I felt like they both got stuck for good 2 hrs. but it finally went away. They had told me to wait 10min. before taking a second pill, I will know better nextime. Well I better get off here, I have to go sip sip! Take care everyone! I've added the new dates for you who wasn't on the list!! Praying that everyone's surgery turns out as good as mine has!!
@@edie091371 So sorry you have to stay in the hospital another night! Praying for a good out come & sending hugs!!!
We now have 87 people on our October list of Surgery's

They have me walking every 2 hours and at night every 4. I feel nauseous after too. I have a patch for that. Really sore on my left side too.

Surgery went well. Just really sore and a little nauseated. Staying one more night. They took me off iv and trying to get all my fluids down and walk. Hope everyone else's surgeries went well. Love you guys and this support group we have!

I'm sorry you are sore but I see a lot of people saying they are really sore on the left side. I thought I would share what my surgeon told me during my final visit before surgery yesterday. He told me I would hurt the most on my left side, that is the largest incision because that is where they slide the stapler in to staple off the stomach. I know it doesn't help the discomfort you are feeling but at least it may ease your mind about it being normal.

They have me walking every 2 hours and at night every 4. I feel nauseous after too. I have a patch for that. Really sore on my left side too.

I hope you are feeling better today!!!

Wishing you a speedy recovery! You made it to the losers bench.

Staying an extra night. Still in a lot of pain. I am taking crushed form of dilaudid. Burning sensation in my stomach. Also am not peering but very little. They were going to send me home with a catheter but wife talked them into keeping me another day instead since we live so far away.
