I'm sorry to hear about your pain. My surgeon told me that is usually the incision where the 'hard work' was done. I had the same issue when I was sleeved. How is you weight loss going?

I am in the same situation. I was extremely swollen and had to go to the bathroom every hour my first day home. Waiting to get on the scale until I can see my ankles again. LoL

Hi! I had surgery on 3/20. Sleeve to bypass revision. I have no trouble taking meds in pill form and am able to drink liquids comfortably. I see that lots of folks struggle with both. Does anyone have any insight as to why some of us are more restrictive than others?

March 20...sleeve to bypass.
-
Ive been home 1 hour. I've had a failed band and a failed sleeve. Just had bypass. My doc gave me a prescription for nausea. I'm taking extra strength Tylenol for pain The diarrhea is normal since you have only had liquids. It will get better but you MUST get in your protein and water. Walking helps with the pain believe it or not. It helps to dissipate the gasses faster.
