Had Surgery Yesterday



Recommended Posts

I made it through and I am grateful! This morning i ate about 3/4 of a popsicle and am full full full! No nausea or vomitting. Pain is starting to subside....i think i may be discharged this evening. I only have 6 small holes on my stomach. Most definitely easier than a c-section

Do you feel wicked thirsty at all? I don't know if that's because I drank so much a day before surgery and I drink half as much now after surgery. I don't want to be peeing all night but I don't want dry mouth during the night either.

I did have one spot that was huge around it! I think I have those pics somewhere I gotta figure out and if your not squeamish I can private message you them! I had a reaction to the dermabond and from the high dose antibiotics that they gave me it was horrible!

      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!!
