What type of pain from the gas? How was the surgery team was everyone nice?

The surgery team was really nice, make sure you follow their instructions. You are supposed to get up and walk at least 30 minutes every day to combat that gas. It was gas that they pump in you for surgery and it gets trapped everywhere. Those gas strips did not help, the gas is not in your stomach it's everywhere the strips can't get to.

My lazy butt didn't feel like doing anything after surgery and I wished I had it took about 2 weeks for that damn gas to get out of my back and shoulder. Very painful. Make sure you use that breathing aparatus as well you don't want pneumonia to set in.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
