  2. How long to feel pains near incisions? (I am 3 wks post op gastric bypass)

    Shellie79 replied to YankeeBizChick's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I had my bypass done almost a month ago. I was good until last week. Started having a soreness on my right side. Progressively has gotten worse. Feels like I'm ripping stitches sometimes doing same things as u mentioned. I saw my doc today and she said it's muscle pain. Gave me muscle relaxers. Hope they work cause it hurts so bad.

  4. CPAP Mask

    Shellie79 replied to hayleyf3706's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I have a dream wear mask. Its nose only. I like it better then the rest. The air tube is at the top of your head. I've had it for 3 months and the machine bothers me so much. I seriously feel better without it, I have more energy and I don't need to take a nap mid day. Can't wait till they say I don't need it anymore.

  5. Itchy incisions

    Shellie79 replied to Ellamax's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I'm two weeks 3 days out of surgery. My incisions still itch bad and red around them. My doc said its an allergic reaction. Benadryl is my friend right now. I hope its over soon! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using the BariatricPal App

  7. Day 6 cheat

    Shellie79 replied to MrzGainey88's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    My nut said 1 screw up undoes everything you just did. I had a bmi of 55 and I had a 11 day preop. Was suppose to be a 14 day but the doc didn't have any other close open surgery days. She said my liver was big but still managed. I'd talk to your surgeon. You really wouldn't want her to open u up and immediately close u back up without surgery.
