It seems like some doctors like to keep people overnight' date=' and others would rather have them out the door as soon as they are awake.[/quote']

I don't know that it is always the doctors but the insurance companies. It seems that insurance companies only pay up to 23 hours of hospital care for what is considered an "outpatient" procedure.

Does anyone have any tips for nausea? I took the nausea pill I was prescribed but It's not going away... My stomach is all rumbly :-(

You should ask your doctor... I was given Rectal suppositories for nausea because anything by mouth was not working for me.

I was self-pay. Insurance had nothing to do with mine.

Well vomited all that back up. Now they're gonna keep me overnight. I'm so groggy still like I wanna go to sleep but can't. My chest hurts really bad, especially when I try & breathe right. But other than that I'm great! Lol!

Sounds like you might need some more pain meds. Also, I only did Water for the first 24 hours, then just Clear Liquids.< /p>

They're keeping me overnight, I threw up all the Water, and my chest hurts real bad! It's late. But other than that, I'm okay.

Just found out that they repaired a hiatal hernia as well. But it's going well, pain is starting togodown more towards the abdome, but bearable. Feeling a lot less groggy! Just kind of tired now.

Slept pretty good from 10-315...got up cuz i had to pee...decided not to lie back down because the pain of standing up from the bed..was HELL!

walked up and down our hallway a few times and then sat down here in recliner..gas pain in chest and back is bad...but soreness by incisions is ok while im sitting. chair is up higher than bed so getting up from here isnt as bad as the bed.

one of the things that is almost as annoying as the pain...the damn itching around the incisions, and around the tape that holding the gauze over the port....driving me nuts.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
