Sick Sick Sick Sick Sick

I'm five days out and having a rough day. Sometimes I think I would have been happier chubby.

I'm sick of being hungry

I'm sick of feeling like something is stuck in my throat

I'm sick of gas

I'm sick of having to burp everytime I eat or drink

I'm sick of sticking needles in my belly

I'm sick of this headache

I'm sick of broth

Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I know I'm being a crybaby but today has been craptastic. Thanks for letting me vent.

  • It's ok to vent when you need to!! It will all get better. This is a big lifestyle change and I'm sure it will take some getting used to. There are plenty of people here that can and will help and sup

  • Thanks for being open sabbymomof3. You expressed how I was kinda feeling. I'm 5 days post op. Can wait for this initial stage to be over.

  • The injection in the stomach is a blood thinner, which really doesn't hurt much since the needle is so tiny. These little shots are also MUCH more preferable to the outcome if you did not have them.

Thanks for posting this. I hope this doesn't sound bad but I'm glad to know im not the only one having problems. I am 13 days post op and at times I regret having the surgery

That's a pretty normal reaction. The first few weeks are hard! Between trying to figure out this new way of eating, new way of looking at food AND dealing with discomfort? Yeah, even mellow me was having a really hard time.

Hugs!

Its been four weeks now and it has gotten better! One day at a time. Down 26 pounds and feeling great. Hope everyone is doing well

I'm six days out and had a bad day too. Hang in there, it will get better!

Maybe you need to add some more ppi's . I was bumped up to protonix twice a day and it so helped. Ask your doc.
