Fatty McFatster got a reaction from Nina113 in My 4 MONTH Post-Op Progress Report
Here is my 4 Month Post-Op Progress Report. Things have really changed over the last 4 months (since I had surgery on November 20th) and wanted to share my continued progress with those that might be interested. I know that I still have work to do, but seeing the weekly progress really helps keep me motivated.
Also, a BIG THANK YOU to all of you that have offered caring support and advice along the way as well as the BariatricPal weight loss and exercise challenges. I can't do it alone...so THANK YOU!!! And a special THANKS to my wife (as we are taking this journey together each step of the way).

Fatty McFatster got a reaction from Fat2Phat2016 in Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers
Thank you all so much for the love and support. I'm not sure what I've shared so far (since I'm doped up on pain meds), so I apologize if I repeat myself.
I was discharged from the hospital around noon yesterday with 5 prescriptions (pain, pain, nausea, antibiotic, and OTC stool softener). I am still in lots of pain and urinating lots of blood. Have to take pain med every 4 hours or it becomes unbearable.
The laser broke up the 8mm stone and he got most of it, but it was really hard and sharp causing a lot of damage to my urethra. It has also caused a tremendous amount of pain and swelling in my testicles. (Feels like someone has been kicking me over and over in the groin area).
I have a stent in and I have to leave it in for 4 weeks (and it too causes a lot of pain).
So I'm pretty much bed ridden for at least 1 week as my surgeon doesn't want me doing anything at all in order to allow things to heal a little and swelling to hopefully go down.
Thanks again to all of you for your thoughts, prayers, and kind words. They mean the world to me!!!
