Surgery was great but while in the pre op I passed out(embarrassing). I have no pain at all in the abdominal area. The gas pain is wicked at times but walking & heat pad do the trick! I sleep soooo much!!

Sounds like you are doing well with recovery! Congrats!!!!

I'm actually looking forward to smaller boobs!!!! I hope it means I can golf! Big tatas = no ability to swing! My girlfriends are asking me to save my extra boobs for them. Poor girls, they have no idea how heavy these melons really are!

So to summarise this thread - it's good to shave your armpits because thats where you'll probably find your boobs.

Thinking ill need a whole body wax now just to make sure...

Day 2 and I am home....no more gas pain in breast and shoulder but a few times an hour I get a sharp pain that only last a few seconds. Happens mostly when i drink, not used to little sips yet! My stomach feels "tight" but I am so happy about no other pain. Puget sound surgery is fantastic! Everyone is really nice. Dr Landerholm is great. The easy part is over....ready to start my new life

Is the sharp pain normal? Its right in between my breasts. Could the gas have moved from left breast to middle of chest? It happens a few times an hour and only last a second or two. Any one else know about or experienced this

Hey pammy I would call my on call number at my surgeons office or the hospital number.

I would definitely inquire about sharp chest pain in the center.

Could be gas and may be normal but I'd feel better and I know you would if you called.

Please call now and give us an update

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
