Had Surgery Yesterday



Recommended Posts

I haven't been able to sleep much, I keep feeling like I'm going to throw up, but its burping that I'm doing. Anyone else experience this? What do I do? It hurts my stomach :(

I hate to say what you already have heard 500 times but walk, walk, walk. I found myself walking at all hours to relieve the gas-y pain in my stomach. Good luck and congrats!

Burping is normal . The burping will go away with time. And yes walk as much as you can to relieve the gas pain.

I had the same thing I was carrying around a puke bucket my entire hospital stay. because every time I sat up or walked it felt like I was going to throw up but all that came out was burps. Walking helps and so does Gas-X extra strength thin strips peppermint. I had my husband run out and buy them for me because my hospital didn't give me anything for gas.

I had the gas pains too.... Ouch! But noticed my Nauseau was more from talking too much. See if that's why. And then I just let the nurse n visitors know that. After the second day it was almost gone and then by the 3rd day it was over.... Good luck!

That is exactly what my doctor said!!! That my nausea was caused by me talking. Now I thought he was coooky because I am in a third world country and they have myths and wives tales but maybe he was right.

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

      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! 😞
