through the ringer

I feel like I have been hit by a Mac truck!! got out of hospital yesterday evening which I should have stayed been running a low grade fever about 100.8 in the evenings. Wednesday they did a dilatation to fix the stricture and Thursday did an ultrasound and found gallstones and sludge so Friday around, noon had gallbladder surgery. and it is 100% worst then gastric bypass pain. I have never been in so much pain in my life!! I am living off pain pills and zofran. I have lost about 10 pounds since Christmas

Did they give a decent pain med? I was on a diladid drip(better than morphine in my book) for 3 days..then switched to loritab...i can't believe they sent you home already..especially if you're running a little temp! My heart really goes out to you...you've been thru a lot...it will get better little by little....keep an eye on that temp and get plenty of rest

they were giving me morphine

which didn't work at all and finally Friday night a nurse I had during my bypass was my nurse that night who knew that morphine didn't work in me nor the zofran called the doctor and was switched to diladid and phenygrin and toradol to get my blood pressure down. I fell asleep within 5 minutes she helped me so much. I am on loratabs and zofran now I am home zofran doesn't help and instead if taking one loratab I am taking one and half that seems to help better but makes me more nauseous. I was able to drink half a cup of unjury chicken soup today. but I am scared I will become malnurished because I can't eat and definitely can't get enough fluids in but I am trying

Just keep trying a little bit at a time and it should get better..did they show you or give you your stones? That liquid Loritab would make me so sleepy and the taste would gag me...hope you start feeling better real soon

May I ask the date of your Surgery. We have a December List and would like to add you if you don't mind. I'm assuming you're DOS is December
