Sleeved 9/4 Im In Pain



Recommended Posts

I'm glad you are feeling a bit better! And hopefully your hubby is as well :) I also had to try a new med for nausea because zolfram just was not working. I've been feeling pretty good still. Some soreness at incision sites, though. I'm so ready for purée!

I think Tuesday was the day for issues because, I got stuck back in the hospital for blood clot and pnemonia issues. I may get out tomorrow.

I'm feeling more like a human today! I have passed a decent amount of gas. My incisions have just been hurting like crazy' date=' but are starting to feel better today. I decided to wear one of my compression shirts and that is helping a bit also. I was just so nauseous. And the meds for that don't work for me apparently. They had to alternate 3 different ones in the hospital. I build up a tolerance for things very quickly. Luckily my husband has been my rock through all of this! He is better to me than I could have ever have asked for. Thank you for all your help and support.[/quote']

Glad you are feeling better! I have been slowly getting better also. I may actually sleep in a regular bed tonight instead of a recliner. I hope so anyways. :) Where did you get a compression shirt? That could help me bc my tummy is so swollen and sore. It is awful. I'm definitely ready to be able to do something besides sit in this house. I'd be happy to go grocery shopping for food I can't eat at this point. haha

If you are looking for additional tummy support try a Belly Band that mom's use after having a baby. You can find them in the maternity sections of Target sometimes...As a nurse we use them for our c section mom's and they say they really work

I hear ya! I've bought so much useless stuff because I needed to get out of the house. I've been to the Mall and TJ Maxx and I just make sure I have a cart and go slow. I don't have much soreness, but I'm still thinking about one of those compression bands too.

My dr always sent me home with a binder.. I felt no pain after lap band or the lap band removal..i think bc of the binder!!! Keeps everything tight! I have my revision on 9/17 and I'm bringing my old binder just in case something changed!!!

Hope you are feeling bettere.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
