Dawnie Doo got a reaction from Gordita81 in August Bypass Buddies!
Ladies...I cried when talking to the APN before I went home. She was giving me all these instructions. So I asked what about all of my meds? When do I start taking those? She said OH NO, you don't have to take any of your normal meds. Everything had been regulated. You hear that? NO DIABETES meds, NO blood pressure meds, NO cholesterol meds!!!! OMG!!!! Listen! If it wasn't for the pain I would've done laps around my floor. Oh did I cry like a big baby!!! Lol I'm about to cry again just thinking about it. God is awesome!
Now this gas...yeah it sucks but I keep walking and I start burping. However my other end seems sealed Lol Oh well. Time to go get my sips. 1 week to go for my post op visit!!!

These were recommended by the team for gas. OMG it saved my life. They're chewable, taste decent, and it works fast. I only had to take one. Now that gas is moving Lol

I made it through! The pain afterwards was excruciating and I wish I had been prepared. They only give me enough pain medication to cut the edge off and then they make me walk. My mouth is like a cotton ball, but I'm feeling better now, I'm 10 hrs post surgery! Today I was reborn!!

I was going to go get some gas x because that's what everyone talks about. But I actually like the taste of Tums so I think I'd prefer these. My surgery is 8/29 and I'm worried about the gas pains. Glad to hear you're feeling better. -

Has anyone else just randomly weighed a week after surgery? I went to my obgyn today and of course they weigh you. When I looked at the scale I was shocked. And once she found out that I'd just had surgery last Thursday she was concerned. I assume its not an issue but losing 20lbs in 7 days especially during my healing phase seems like a lot...but perhaps Im ova thinking it.
It's never too late, until its too late

Man that liquid potassium is hot lava. My nurse even halfed it with Water and my arm was still on fire and still numb. I went thru 4 bags of that stuff. After all my suffering it was determined it wasnt helping. Lol. So I then was moved to the giant potassium horse pills. But that too was my only complaint. It's never too late, until its too late

Hi Everyone,
I just wanted to let ya'll know that I made it through to the other side. Still in the hospital tonight, but might go home tomorrow. It's been more painful than I had hoped, but at least the nurses have been very sweet. Thanks to you all for your support.
