I had surgery in Boca Raton and I live in Tampa. I had a 2 day hospital stay and went home right after being discharged Had no issue sitting in the car. You just have to get out every hour and walk around. It makes you feel better plus circulation to prevent blood clots. I was self pay too. Dr's in Tampa wanted 27k but I paid 10.5k in Boca.

I apologize I should have been more specific... I only vomited brown liquid in the hospital. I haven't since I've been home. Sent from my SM-G930V using the BariatricPal App

I decided to go to work tomorrow. I sit at a desk all day and won't be doing anything of real importance. I feel like maybe if I rejoin the world it will feel better.

I had surgery on 10/24. Tomorrow will be 1 week post surgery. I knew everyone has different experiences but I've always done well with surgeries and medications and medical thing. This is nothing like I could have imagined. I knew I wouldn't be hungry but I don't think I actually grasped or frankly believed that was possible. Now I find myself barely eating anything. Not my Protein drinks or yogurt and drinking is the hardest thing in the world. It's physically painful in my chest to drink. Emotionally I've felt at Rock bottom. The nausea after my surgery has me vomiting brown liquid and I kept whining "why did I do this to myself?" I've been a complete recluse ignoring phone calls and texts and in the spirit of complete honesty, I have not even Pet my dog since I've been home from the hospital. This animal I've taken care of since he was 8 weeks I have no desire to be around. My family is incredibly supportive and I know this will make me sound ridiculously ungrateful... but they are so supportive it's annoying. I truly do know how lucky I am to have a family like I do because I have seen and read a lot about unsupportive families and spouses. They keep telling me it will get better and that they know how I feel but how can they? They have not had this surgery and have no idea what it's been like this past week. I just need to know if this does get better? When will I feel as amazing as everyone says they feel? When will I be able to drink liquids without pain? I know that things will never be as they were and I'm glad for that, but today I just need to know that someone does understand the way I feel and that there is a light at the end of this tunnel. Sorry for the saga. I think that was officially longer than any opening credit of a star wars movie Sent from my SM-G930V using the BariatricPal App
