Everything went good. Just very sore. My back kills! Idk what they did to me.

Hang in there, maybe gas in some odd areas...I'm sure you've heard no less than 5,756 time but walk walk walk! Hope things improve today!

Have they done an upper GI/Barium Swallow to check for a leak or stricture? I'm so sorry you are having it so rough! Big hugs!

Yes my upper Gi looked good. Hopefully this burping and bloating will go away. Anybody else have this problem?

A few things I had in the hospital and I'm not sure what they are giving you but I had little nausea(one we figured paint meds out) and little issues with burping etc...I was on Simethicone(generic gas meds they wouldn't allow me to use the GasX strips everyone told me to bring) I was also on IV meds for my GERD(Protonix) and they had me on a Nausea patch behind my ear, when I was on the heavy pain meds the first day and super sick I was given IV meds to stop that but I forget the name, but it knocked me out cold lol! Maybe there is something they can give you to try to ease your symptoms...could it possibly be your pain meds?

The burping can also just be some of the gas that's trapped, are you up and walking a lot?

I'm out of the hospital now. Had a couple spoons of broth. I'm scared to swallow my pain meds so I'm trying to deal without. I just do not see how I will get all my Protein and Water in. I can only sip a little then stop. I also can't lay down. When I do it feels like everything is coming back up! Ugh I'm in the regret phase right now!

I am feeling better. Still bloated and my fluids gurgle as they go down but I'm getting used to it. Can't wait until all the air is out.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
