  1. I went on day 2 and it hurt like the dickens!! Then last week turns out I had a small bowel obstruction and that caused some constipation that I didn’t know was happening because I thought the way I felt was supposed to be normal. Now I’m having to take Miralax 3x/day until my post op follow up appointment. Hopefully all is still good and I won’t have to keep taking stool softeners.
  2. Howdidd you all get these signatures? I’ve tried googling and looking on this page but I’m not seeing it as an option.
  3. Thanks so much for your kind words. I’m so scared right now and trying to be positive. It’s hard to do when you’ve got an open wound. I went to the doctor and they had to reopen the incision anD pack it with gauze. I’ve never had anything like this happen before and starting to regret having this surgery.
  4. I had my gastric bypass surgery on 9/26/2023 and was doing ok recovery until this week. I’ve been in unbearable pain and went to the urgent care and unfortunately my longer incision has an infection. The pain is horrible and I knew something was so wrong because the oxycodone was doing nothing for my pain. Really got freaked out when it began draining in its own. It’s been non stop. ???. Very stressed and angry that I’m still having issues and can’t get around better.
  5. Hi all! I’ve got my surgery this upcoming Tuesday and I’m struggling with making a schedule for my daily vitamins. Feeling very overwhelmed. Any suggestions or templates any one can provide?
