Had surgery yesterday and
sumochik replied to sb90's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was super nauseous too after surgery and the nausea meds they put in my IV didn't help. The first night was really bad and one of my nurses stayed with me and did breathing techniques to get me through until I could fall asleep. Try some deep breathing! It will get better!

Im 16 days post op and I struggle to get my 64 ounces in as well. The hardest part for me is not drinking a half an hour before and after eating. As the days go by I can drink more and more though. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Returning to work 1 week after surgery?
sumochik replied to sleevette's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am a teacher and I went back to work exactly one week post op. I was a little weak the first two days but I did it. I am now almost two weeks post op and I feel almost 100%. There's not much heavy lifting here though. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

I checked my blood pressure at Walmart just now and it was perfect. I am gonna see my GP this week for a checkup. The doc on call said it was most likely dehydration and not taking Vitamins, which I can't tolerate the ones I have. So I just bought some Centrum minty chewable vitamins and we'll see how that goes.

I've been working towards surgery now since January, and my surgery is this Wednesday. It still doesn't seem real to me. It probably won't until I'm on the operating table. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
