I am getting everything together for surgery today. Hoping all goes well. I am not really nervous right now, but we will see! Hope everyone has a great day today!

I'm sure everything will go smoothly for you! Please update us later on how you're doing!

Hoping everything went well.....

The surgery went fine but how I feel after the surgery is not so fine. A lot of pain and nausea.

Pik I'm happy for the surgery went fine. I hope your nausea goes away.

Glad all went well @@pik! Hang in there, the next several days are rough, but once you turn that corner, it'll be well worth it! Rest rest rest (and walk!)

Pick,

Did the doc give you anything for nausea?

My surgery is Monday and I am worried about the nausea.

I asked for the nausea patch before surgery. Not sure it helped much because I'm typically sick until the anesthesia gets out of my system. But it may help someone else.

Thanks Angel...

Will have to check that out.

They gave many different things for both pain and nausea and most of didn't even touch my problems.

There was a girl in a bed beside me who was asking for delaudid all day and night long and she got it. The last time I asked for something for both things through the night (and it was 2 hours past the time) the nurse told me he wanted me to cycle through the pain and nausea.

I also gained over ten pounds with the surgery with all of the fluids they packed into me. Right now when I go to the bathroom or walk a little I get chest pain.... This surgery for me suck. I will be glad once all of these bad days are behind me.

This doesn't happen to everyone, I have read, but I am one of the lucky ones!

My dr gave Dorgan for nausea when I left hospital,while there it was in an iv

Sorry Pik,

Wishing you better days ahead.

GOOD LUCK...

Thanks countrygirl...

I am definitely asking for something ahead of time.

Pik I hope your recovery is quick.

Hope you're starting to feel better Pik!

I hope you start to feel better soon! I felt horrible after my RNY also and had a whole lotta pain as well. Best thing you can do for the pain is to walk, walk, walk! I know that's the last thing you want to do right now, but a lot of the pain is from gas they pump in you during the surgery and the more you walk the better you will feel! Also, each day you will start to feel better and better! Don't worry about how much you gain in fluids or whatnot after surgery, it will all come off and then some in the next few weeks! I gained a whopping 22lbs. From Fluid in the hospital, and I just had plastic surgery 3 weeks ago and gained 16lbs. all of which has come off since! Demand better pain meds and keep bugging them until you get relief and if they say your dr. said this or that tell them you want to speak to your dr. because you are in really bad pain and you need relief! The chest pain will also subside in time but I'm not going to lie, it was hell!! But it will get better day by day! Good luck and keep us posted on how you are doing!
