    I am 6 days out from sleeve to rny revision & still have not [emoji90]. I am finally passing gas, but I do not feel any urge to have a bowel movement. I have been taking Dulcolax stool softener a couple times a day, but still nothing. Was wondering if MOM or Mirilax is the way to go? I am also having a sharp pain under by left breast/rib cage. Hurts to take a deep breath. Anyone else experience this?
    MOM is the way to go. I had pain too but in my right side. Just make sure you walk and that time Will come. Everyone's body is different just make sure you consume enough Water too. Good luck hun

    So you need to take a laxative after the surgery or before thanks for sharing midnightsun
    I would suggest to follow Dr request him told me to take stool softener right after but I waited. I could not poop until I did an edema. Oh that was the most painful thing besides labor lol. Please walk walk walk and drink Water with Fiber. I'm on my 3 weeks post op and still not pooping correctly. The struggle is real.

    I’m day two as well!! And had a hernia repaired!!! The only pain I have is the spot where he pulled my stomach out. I have felt sick at all.
    The weirdest thing is, my stomach will start growl and feel hungry, then it stops. I’m not hungry at all right know, but I want to chug a cold bottle of Water 🤣
    Hope your recovery is speedy!!
    Omg that's all I want is be able to chug Water. How you doing now?

    I'm 9 days post-op bypass. Yesterday I had my 1 week appt and I'm down 23 lbs [emoji4] I haven't been this weight in about 10 years. I'm already very excited that I went through with it!
    I'm mostly meeting liquid and protien goals, walking my 10k steps/ day, and dr cleared me to ride my beach cruiser on flat trails.

    First off, waking up from surgery was legitimately one of the most painful experiences of my life. There was a grown man next to me, also waking up from his surgery (same type) crying from the pain. This has been an awful experience and I’m trying to understand why it isn’t highlighted to a patient before they actually go through with the whole process. I’m now on day 5 (hallelujah) and the gas pain (and holding down food without vomiting) is still there and it sucks. If I had known what I was truly about to get myself into, I wouldn’t have done this. I literally woke up from surgery in such extreme pain that I screamed out “are u Fing kidding me?!?!”. I know better days are ahead but can someone also agree with me that this is NOT pleasant? Or is it just me? Everyone seems so “woohoo” about this and I’m More like “wth?!”
    Oh I can TOTALLY understand you. I woke up the same way. And still have been in pain this is day 3 for me. I also had a esophagus hernia operation. The doctor said to me only extra strength aspirin. Like Really I'm in LOTS of pain. I have had 2 c-sections but this pain was horrible. I can deal with that pain. I hope you heal fast and healthy.

    Hey guys I know we have a July 2019 topic we can talk to each other on but I thought it might be neat to have a schedule so we know who’s going when and we can check on each other! Comment below with your date & surgery and I’ll edit and add you! We can still keep up on our other topic I’m not trying to hijack. Just making a schedule for us to keep up :)
