Hi everyone. This is 4th day post-op and I still feel uncomfortable' date=' stomach upset, feel pain at times when drinking. I am moving around better this morning but not up to getting outside. Is this normal?[/quote']

From what I've read, it seems perfectly normal! It takes a good week before your back up on your feet. You had major surgery and the anesthesia alone takes awhile to go away! Keep moving as much as you can and give yourself some time!

Hello everyone, I made it to the post op group yay! Just a quick update on how I'm feeling. The pain is very tolerable, I actually found gallbladde surgery worse. Had my surgery friday morning and today was my hardest day. Not the pain tho...the nausea. Omg :( I was crying and found myself regretting my decision to have this done. After alot of graval and zofran I was much better and I don't regret this at all. Everyones healing process is different and I have to remember that and remind myself that a few days of pain and nausea is worth the life change and happier healthier me. I'm home now resting and walking. My kids are ginornous helps! And the pain meds my Dr gave me are helping so much with everything. Hope everyone post op is doing extremely well and look forward to everyones success :-)

Im glad everytging went good

Had my surgery on Friday...anyone noticing word body temperature Ups and downs? Hot/cold? No fever...could be that I started my period... Its just strange...

My temperature has gone up and down since my surgery last Weds. Doctor is only concerned if it goes over 100. I am amazed how much your taste buds change... I loved powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein shakes and was drinking them as part of my 4 month pre-surgery weight loss. Now they are challenging to get down. Also, I fill up so fast on anything that I eat that I start to get heart burn and hic cups very fast. Every day gets a little better, so let's just all hang in there!!!

Took a really amazing shower today! It is amazing how after surgery everything feels better with a warm shower.

My temp is staying in the 96 range. I think it's because of my period also

I too am a April 2013 post surgery player. I am 6 days post op and doing well. My only prob is the smell of real foood makes me think I am starvin but I know I am not. I need to begin vitamins any suggestions for the best value? My budget is tight

I'm 3 days out and the smell of real food doesn't bother me at all! It actually turns my stomach. I tried eating some cream of wheat today and my pouch was like umm nope that's gross. Even struggling to drink Protein shakes to ensure I'm getting my protein in. Its difficult!
