Well day after for me. I had a few complications, apparently there was an unusual artery in my stomach they cut and I needed blood etc. also had a reader and hernia. So I'm super super sore and still groggy. But lady next to me is leaving this morning and is fine ???? everyone's different I suppose

I had to ask the doctor that as well. I think it's like a hernia where my band was previously. From what I gather anyway. I've never heard of it before lol.... Hope everyone else going ok.

Had my surgery at 12 noon, no complications, but TERRIBLE sore throat from the scope! Also parched because I have had nothing by mouth, not even ice chips for 31 hours now! My dr allows nothing by mouth, IV fluids only until the barium x-Ray to check for leaks today. Sore throat, really sore belly, but it is so weird that I am not the slightest bit hungry! Really looking forward to ice chips or something to sip though!

I had my surgery yesterday around 1:30-1:40 and was out of surgery at about 2:10! Lol same with my doctor, only IV fluids for the first day. Its now 6am and I'm dying for a sip of Water or ice chips as well!! Only my left incision where the stomach was taken out hurts when I get up and walk. Other than that, everything else went great! Congrats on no complications for you!!

Ok I thought I was looking forward to ice chips or water???? they gave me a small cup of ice chips and I chewed half and felt uncomfortably full and nauseous! Can't tolerate broth or Jello, each makes me belch and feel terrible, even water is almost impossible. Pain level is up today and they are giving me the liquid Vicodin now, thought I was going to get to go home but staying another night to see if I can tolerate liquids better tomorrow.really rough day too I know it's going to get better but it's awful right now.

I love hearing that some of you got through relatively unscathed lol ???? but I feel for any that had complications. Even though I had complications looks like they are letting me go home this afternoon. Yehhh. I'm just paranoid about getting the balance right between how many mls per hour or not over doing it and causing a leak. Hopefully we will all find our way. Getting the measuring jug out when I get home to make sure. Good luck everyone xx

Sleeved on the 18th. Home now. In the hospital I forced myself to do a ton of walking and it really helped. I noticed the Jello bothered me in the hospital but the broth was fine. I also was able to tolerate sonic ice which was a plus. Last night at home I had room temp Water and original V8 which my doc recommends...went down fine. I did have to take the liquid codine for bed last night but I chalk that up to my wife's driving home from the hospital more than anything :)

Over all I am surprised I am doing this well.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
