  4. That is absolutely fantastic!!! I am so, so happy for you. I had my bypass June 30th, 2021, & I'm hoping to resolve my severe sleep apnea & increase mobility again. May we both be blessed with many healthy successes in the years to come. ???

  8. I'm four days out from the surgery & I have recurring, terrible pain in the upper left abdomen. I did some research & learned that it's at this incisional site that most of the physical manipulating of surgery is carried out & also where the largest stitching takes place to guard against a future hernia. The fascia in particular are bruised & injured in the process. Pain here is normal & can radiate to the shoulder &/or neck. Tylenol will help to a degree & the pain will resolve within a few weeks. It can be worse at night when we're sleeping because we're unconsciously moving & tossing our bodies as though everything's normal. I wish you a full & speedy recovery & really hope the pain diminishes soon. ? PS: I'm in Montreal, Quebec. Which province are you in, if I may ask?

  11. I'm sorry to hear you're still struggling a little. I hope your recovery continues speedily & that you feel better shortly. I had my bypass 2 days ago & am feeling pretty good, just a little sore & very tired from not sleeping at the hospital. Please just keep taking good care of yourself & resting as much as possible. And keep hydrated above all. Let us know how you're doing when you're up to it. You're in my thoughts & prayers for full healing & a wonderful, healthy, transformative year.?

  18. My bypass on June 30th went very well & I returned home a day later. I'm catching up on sleep & doing my homework: staying hydrated, walking, doing the breathing exercises & getting in some protein. The staff at the hospital were wonderful, very reassuring & caring, & now that my gas pain is dissipating, I only have a little soreness in the the upper abdomen which is easily kept at bay with Tylenol. If you have an upcoming surgery, please know that it's been much easier than I anticipated. Blessings to you for a wonderful weekend & journey.
  19. I'm so glad to hear you're doing well, too. That's wonderful! May we both enjoy a truly wondrous year. Wishing you blessings & sending you healing, virtual hugs.☺️
