How long did u have pain after ur surgery?? I have sooo much pain and bloating! I am post-op 3 days RNY

By day 3 post-op for me, I decided to give it a go with no pain medication. I was very bloated too, and what really seemed to help was walking. As much as I didn't want to do it, I made myself get up and go out into the neighborhood and just walk around. It really helped- within just a couple of days, the bloating and "after-pains" were completely gone. Everyone's different though.

I felt pretty good after 1 week.

With my gastric, complete pain free was 5 weeks. I was off the pain meds after two weeks and stuck with tylenol. It was manageable, but i was sore. I am starting 6 weeks and I have never felt better

Thanks for the responses! I had the sleeve done 2 years ago and had no pain and no bloating and was on the go that night! Then i had the RNY done 4 days ago and i am miserable bloating bad and pain and discomfort i walk but it hurts to walk.. Not to mention i am on my period to which doesn't help... Blah????

I left the hospital without medication and no pain. I hope this passes for you soon!
