May 24 Surgery Day
Good morning!!! I'm glad you will be able to stay one more night. @@Peach55 Nothing like a nurse's help. Remember not to drink so fast. Take tiny sips.. i haven't thrown up at all because the tiny "infant" sips. My hope is, my doctor tells me to stay one more night as well.. I haven't really gotten liquids in. I think yesterday, at most, I drank 8 oz. This includes a few small spoons of Jello. I wonder if I can request for my incisions to be cleaned and re-bandaged. I'll ask later. Maybe everyone else is in too much pain to follow-up. Awww.. i how you all are doing well. Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

I did the same thing with the morphine... I keep waking up too.. I'm not used to gas pain. It really sucks. Go around and walk, they say... but it doesn't help. Sigh.. i walked for 15 mins and nothing. Other than that, i feel great. Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

So, my tiny bit of gas was so bad that I decided to take a walk against the nurses advice. She was very surprised how well it went. I managed to burp a little but I still have a little gas again. I'm scared it's going to get bad like earlier. I took a 2 hour nap and I feel better. So I'm finally going to try to eat. I've only been having ice chips. Right now I have a male nurse. He just got here, so I'm not as comfortable as before. But all in all... i feel fantastic. I haven't used morphine at all. My tap is still new. How is everyone else doing?! Oh and I haven't thrown up..... YET!

I'm out. Surgery went well! I'm not in any pain except a tiny bit of gas pain but nothing too bad. The nurses are saying I'm a very easy patient. I haven't used my morphine at all. The nurse pressed it when she woke me up but after that, nothing. I hope it went this easy for everyone! Let me know! I'm so happy to be sitting on the losers bench! Who else is with me?!

Yey @@ChooChi73 I'm glad you're feeling okay. Congrats to you too. @@yescres07 Doesn't it suck though? Ugh. I was scared that maybe my surgeon would postpone my surgery. But that sounds silly. It's a natural thing. I'm going to try to sleep early because I know I'll wake up at 4am as I have been everyday for the passed 2 weeks. Maybe 830pm Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Hi @@gina171 I'm not pup, but I am also getting the RNY. I hope you don't mind my input. When I started this whole thing, i wanted the sleeve. I was set on getting that one over the bypass. After going to all my required classes, i found out that the RNY is better for people who are diabetic and people who live sweets. I am not diabetic, but I have been borderline once upon a time. I personally love cakes, ice cream, Cookies, chocolate, etc.. I'm not too fond of candy. But I can't seem to get enough of cakes. I learned that your body will reject sugar and eventually I will learn to stay away from sweets altogether to avoid getting sick. This is the main reason I chose it. The second reason I chose it, is because a lot of people are getting revisions to the bypass. I thought I should just get the RNY to avoid that incase it does happen to me. My doctor said either one is safe and is good choice. Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App
