Just Woke Up From Surgery!!



Recommended Posts

So I'm laying in my hospital bed, had surgery 6 and a half hours ago. I have been feeling a little spewy sick from the anesthetic but they have been giving me injections to prevent spewing and moving the band. I was originally aloud ice to suck on but now not :( I am purely on fluids through a drip until tomorrow when I drink the dye and have an X-ray. It kind of hurts to breathe and my mouth is so dry, I've never wanted a drink of Water so bad before lol

:D xox

When I have surgery I always wake up feeling really puky! I did tell the Doctor/Nurses and everyone prior that this happens. Sure enough as soon as the nurse came to try to wake me in the recovery room, as I was coming too, I said Im gonna hurl!! I didn't but they had the stuff ready right there to go in my IV.

Just let them know if you have a tendency.. they can make arrangements to have it near. They could get it anyway but I wanted to make sure!!!!

You should feel much better tomorrow! hang in there...

Just rest and recover.. and try to drink the fluids when you get back on them... keep in mind IF your on alot of IV at the moment, you might notice a some weight gain from the IV solution.. it will go away...

So my suggestion is try to stay off the scale for a week or so...

I had surgery yesterday and told the nurse that I get nauseous in the am and when I wake up almost everyday she told the anesthesiology and they gave me a shot for it! It worked so well that not even that nasty liquid before the X-ray made me nauseous! Thanks God not pain only a little on my left shoulder and I'm guessing that's from gas!!! Good luck!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
