I didn't have a button. I just told the nurse and she gave me my medicine through my iv. But the codeine they sent home is nasty. I took a pill yesterday. They are relatively small and I felt fine. I think it's feeling a little better. But it's just like when I had my gallbladder removed. The pain to get up and lie down is so excruciating. I used my pillow but Ouch

I'm 3 days post op and down 10lbs . I am pretty sore and tired very tired. I'm sipping and walking and trying for some Protein as well. I use the unflavored Syntrax to help with the protein amount and the whey protein fruit punch in my Water has 42 grams of protein. I can lay on my side pretty easily with a pillow, Which took much longer with the gallbladder surgery. I had hiatal hernia repair as well. Thanks for asking about me. Glad to hear how well you're doing that's awesome! What do you eat for Breakfast lunch dinner? Snacks?

      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! 😞
