  1. Thanks! There is a light at the end of the tunnel
  2. Yes I have the glue and am having redness and itching. I’m sensitive to adhesives.
  3. Band to bypass revision on 12/22. Having a hard time getting protein in. Sipping but get gas pains after sipping anything other than water. I’m feeling very weak and still very sleepy. Want to sleep all day but force myself to be awake and drink fluids. Anyone else experience this? Starting to feel discouraged and definitely Feeling like I shouldn’t have done this right before Christmas [emoji53].
  4. I keep getting gas pain when I sip anything other than water too.
  5. First time posting here- Had my revision from lap band to RNY yesterday. It’s not as bad as I had built up in my head. Took a while for anesthesia to wear off. I had ice chips first, then water, and a sugar free popsicle last night. Everything is going down ok. The gas pain is the worst part but it’s tolerable. Walking helps. Hoping to go home today. The hospital bed is uncomfortable and people come in and out of my room constantly, so I’m looking forward to a good night sleep. The actual incision sites are not very painful. Feels like I did a bunch of sit ups. Peeing feels a little weird. Who knew we used so many abdominal muscles to pee. I also have cotton mouth, which I’m hoping gets better. Here’s to a new me for the new year.
