Well...i Made It!

I'm alive! Yesterday was hell, but so far today I actually feel semi human. I am not exaggerating when I say the first day is hell. But believe anyone who tells you that walking makes you feel a ton better! Anesthesia always causes me to get sick so I have had zofran every 6 hours or less. One of my incisions (I have 6!) hasn't stopped bleeding (at least as of about 2 hours ago), so if it doesn't stop I will have to stay another night. If it looks fine I will be able to go home today. I just finished my 4 "shots" of Water in an hour & threw up the gastrographen (sp??) before I started the Water. That stuff is horrible. Anesthesia is wearing off & I am feeling a lot better. :-) just my quick update!

Yay! Congratulations on overcoming what I would assume is the hardest part. Sorry about the nausea, that is actually one of the things I am the most scared about!

Good luck keep us posted on your progress. Fingers crossed that it stops and Water stays down.

This is really good to hear. I hope your incision site stops bleeding,it is much easier to recover at home. I was told I would have 5 incision sites, but I got 6 which the doc proudly announced when I seen her. At that point, I didn't really care, I just wanted to be left alone and go back to sleep. I loved my morphine pump. LOL CONGRATS and welcome to the BIG LOSER'S BENCH! you are going to be so skinny really, really soon.

Congrats!! Sorry you are feeling like crap...but hopefully it goes up from here! I ususally dont get sick from the anesthesia so im hoping thats the case after my surgery. I meet with my dr & nutritionist next week, then surgery is the following week. I am very nervous YIKES!! Keep updating your progress.

Thanks everyone! So far since starting the Water I've had no nausea! Yay! And I don't think my incision is leaking anymore. They are going to let me shower soon. I'm sure that will make me feel better too.
