    July 2020 Surgery anyone?

    Underwent RNY Gastric Bypass yesterday at 1PM. Woke up with 6 lap sites (I thought it would be 4-5 wondering who else can post their amount). Was in a lot of pain in recovery where they gave me 0.5mg Dilaudid once and then a 5mg Oxycodone when I arrived to my room and was still in a little discomfort. Even with scheduled Tylenol and Gabapentin the pain, although tolerable, does keep me up from sleep. Been eating ice chips and had 3 sugar free popsicles. Up and walking like a champ through the hallways as I’m bored and am unable to have visitors at this time. I guess my question to anyone reading this is: is my experience Expected and typical?

    Emily - I feel the same way!!! My RNYGB is scheduled for July 14th. I too am an RN - though I won't be telling any of my assigned nurses that while I'm in the hospital. Curious to know if you'd take that same stance? Congrats to you, though! If you'd like to DM me, I could really use a support buddy. Curious to know which surgery you'll he undergoing as well.
