Any surgery pals this week?
Hi I had surgery in 28 April. I had major issue with the anesthesia and nausea. Overall I am doing well. I did stay an extra day in the hospital and I think that really helped. For the nausea they ended up putting a patch on me. The patch made a difference. I am doing well with keeping Water down. Each day is getting better. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Maryland sleevers?!
Well I am sleeved! The surgery went well. I had major issues with nausea. The meds at first were not giving me relief, but they ended up putting a patch on and that made a difference. The pain is pretty tolerable so no real issues in fact I did not come home with the pump. Really only one incision is sore. The other ones I hardly even feel. I am finding out my heating pad is very comforting and soothing. After surgery getting up walking really helps to wake your system and get the gas moving. I also found that someone running my back ( like a baby) helped with the gas. Overall I am doing fine. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

The surgery went well. The nausea was pretty bad they finally put a patch on and that seemed to really help. Likewise the other meds just did not pack a punch with the nausea. I have one incision that is really bothersome. Overall my experience was pretty good. I am doing okay still some minor aches in shoulders from the gas. I am finding that my heating pad is giving me some relief and is soothing. I did not come home with the pain pump. Just with my meds. I am doing okay without. I did not have stomache spasms or dry heaves; bless your heart I know that had to be tough. I am glad to know your better. We are going to get through this and keep each other on track.

Well I am home. Surgery went well. Doing pretty good with the fluids and walking. I stayed in hospital an extra day due to major nausea issues from the anesthesia. Once they put a patch on I felt a lot better. Congratulations to those who had surgery on 28 April. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
