My Experience After Surgery



Recommended Posts

I got my sleeve done yesterday Dallas.

Painful. Morphine did not work for me. They ordered something stronger. That did not work. They gave me a pill that did not work. I woke up crying in pain. The doctor ordered another pain medication. That worked. Im still in the hospital. Everything is ok now.

Thank for all the prayers and kind words.

It was a lady in recovery with me. I felt so sorry for her. She had the band 2 sleeve. She could not stop throwing up. She was throwing up blood. I hope she is ok.

Ain't no stoppin us now,were on the move !!!!!!<br />Sincerely<br /> Zeta

I'm glad that found a pain medication that would work for you! Frankly, I would rather deal with pain than deal nausea - feel so bad for that women that was in recovery with you. Take your meds, take your time, and get lots of rest!

I had to stay another night. I was in so much last, I was crying so loud the nurse next door came to check on me. She called the front again to make sure my nurse was coming. It kind of hurts when I drink.

Again thanks

I have never in life experience that much pain in my life. The nurses could not believe morphine did not work.

I felt bad for her too. I pray she is better.

thanks

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
