Oh, that stuff was awful! They were giving that to me after they took the morphine pump away. What are they telling you when you tell them you are hurting? They started giving me Toradol with my pain meds because my back hurt so bad after surgery.

They just tell me to wait 4 hours. It's making it nearly impossible to get up and move around. Im just not being demanding enough

Ask for Toradol if you still have your IV. You have the right to be comfortable and not in pain!

Hey everyone. Surgery went well I was in a room by 11:30 this morning. Up walking by 3 however that made me sick so they just let me walk again at 10. In the morning they will do the swallow test. Then I can finally sip Water or eat ice chips

Glad to hear your surgery went successful! My surgery is Monday and I will also have to do a swallow test before I can have something to drink. I hope everything goes well in the morning.

Thanks. They said the test should be at 730. Can't wait I'm ready for some Water

Lots of nausea yesterday. Every time I walked the halls, dry heaving would follow. Ugh!! But change a girl's meds and today is a new day filled with new possibilities! I'm doing much better. Now time for sip, walk, sip & walk! Got to try to get liquids down today - yesterday I was dehydrated. Let's do this!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
