Two Days Post-Op

I'm in the hospital two days post-op. Overall I feel okay but i'm having difficulty keeping my liquid pain meds down. I've kept down juice, Water, and a popsicle but I can't seem to handle the oral pain meds so I've vomited three times. I'm hoping to go home tomorrow but I don't know if that will be possible if I can't tolerate the pain meds :(

Going to bed for the night. I'm hoping for day 3 to be a turn-around day like everyone says. Fingers crossed!

  • You're going to be amazed at how great you feel in a few more days. I went home post-op day 1. I worked hard to be able to but I'm fortunate that my mother was able to take care of me and help me. She

Yea,

Hoping its a better day. Today. You can do it. For the team.

Day 3 post op...That train came thru again and hit me last night again! My 2 Great Danes know something is wrong, and because my husband worked overnight last night, they were with me on the bed, and couldn't understand that their heads were to heavy to rest and snuggle on my belly!! I'm having a hard time being compliant with my blood pressure med, just the thought of tasting it crushed, gags me. So glad my Dr. ok'd to stop taking my cholesterol ones!! Other than stomach, shoulders, neck and my whole lower back in pain when I move... I'm doing great! lol Sipping the recommended 48-64 oz's of liquids, and not needing the Pepcid AC. Everyone take care... And know you are not alone! Now to try and let the Danes in... Ugh... lol

Are you home yet?

I was sleeved on Tuesday and home on Thursday.

Yes they did the single incision and I love it! All of the nurses were very impressed! Dr. Guske really is a genius!

How was your pain with the single incision? I'm going tomorrow for single incision at 1230! I'm freaking out about the pain. Did you bruise at all?

I had single incision as well and Ive had my gall bladder out and had multiple incisions so I know the difference and its big. My incision really didnt hurt. It was more the soreness in the actual tummy. No bruising, not even from the blood thinner shots that they warned me might bruise me.

I agree with bunny. I hardly had any incision pain, only pain on the inside. I stopped the pain meds on day 4 or 5, can't remember. I did get a few bruises from the shots but nothing serious.
