i have to say this has been one hell of a journey for me. I def doubted myself. I vomited so much that i was so sore and couldnt get enough pain meds in me to stop the pain. The pain meds they give you are not strong so if you take meds like i do on a daily basis please stop them a month before surgery. that is my advice. Dr. Ponce and trish are amazing, One of Dr. Ponce partners i cannot say the same for. He told me to toughen up. LOL

I do well with pain and cant figure out why i was in so much pain but assume it was from all the vomiting. Once the drain is out you are on the fast track to feeling better.

Gas is horrible and so painful. Say a prayer that my pain eases and im home safe in the states monday painfree.

thanks for all the support

I am praying for you! I am so sorry you are having this type of reaction and pain. Are you by yourself? It does get better I promise. I had some pain at times and each day gets better. I am 12 days out and still have little melt downs. I hope you get better soon.

I am sorry to hear you are having such pain! I had a lot of pain from my back injury, so bad that it made new very nauseous. But it was not from the surgery. Dr Ponce ordered me some muscle relaxants and that helped a bunch. The nurses changed my bed to a different bed and that also helped. I hope you feel better soon!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
