I can't believe how much pain I was in and I'd rather have the pain than nausea. This is bad and on top of that I urinating every 30 min. I am barely holding down pain meds. God I pray this does not last. My incision feel better but i have a low grade fever. I just had an ounce of New Whey Protein. Any one Else use new whey protein. I can't believe some people feel great afterwards. My sister had a hernia repair and is totally relaxed. It's only 1 day post op and I feel regrets. What am I going to do?

you sound similar to many on the forum and give me doubts. But I bet in a week or 2 you will be happy you made the choice you did and I wishh you good luck.

I don't want to discourage anyone just want to know if others have gone through this and things turned around. Sorry just this forum gives me encouragement at times. Maybe you will be right 1 to 2 weeks. I was hoping because I am 22 tht I would jumped back up on my feet. I've had 2 open heart surgery and that I breezed through but this is much harder for some reason. I pray you make the best decision for yourself. :)

Well, I said I wasn't worried about anything, but getting nervous about the pain! I have my surgery on July 10th! I have to take pain meds already for my Lupis and I am worried about how they are going to control my pain, and how I am going to be able to keep the pain meds down because I take so much!!! Officially nervous! Sleevertobe, I sure hope you are feeling better soon!!! Take care girl! Prayers and well wishes coming your way! On a brighter note, You're a LOSER!!! woo hoo congrats!! Oh and P.S., you need to change your screen name now!!

Thanks. The pain is not too bad but nausea is awful. My dr just put in a order at the pharmacy for antiemetic. Prayerfully that will make things better. Yes I am now a loser haha I went from 238 to 224. So I will stay positive and look into changing my screen name. :)

how do you change your screen name? Just take it one day at a time and you will be fine! But thats easy for me to say at this point.

I am in the same boat with you. I am 24 and I thought I would bounce back but boy was I wrong. I had surgery on 6/6/12 and Ive been in the hosp 3 times since. I had problems with nausea,pain,I wasnt able to urine for 2 days and I had to get my gallbladder removed on the 27th. 2 surgeries in one month has put a toll on me but im trying to stay optimistic. Hope u have a speedy recovery.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
