Day 3 Milestone (TMI Post-Warning)



Recommended Posts

You guys are right, each day has gotten better since surgery and so far day 3 has been no different, although this is the day it got ALOT better!

Last night I was in pain again so I took lortab and a couple Gas-X strips before going to bed. I knew the lortab would help me sleep but didn't have a lot of faith in the Gas-X accomplishing anything. Wow, was I wrong! 4 hours later I literally woke myself up in the middle of the night with the greatest passing of wind the world has probably ever known. Seriously, I wish I had a stopwatch handy because it had to have been some kind of record for the sheer duration of it. I can't say my wife was as impressed as I was but my dog certainly seemed to be.

And just like that, almost all my pain was gone! The new only pain I feel now is the incisions and that is very minor and completely tolerable.

Sorry to be crude but this was a milestone in feeling better for me and I'm just sharing my experiences as they come. I hope the rest of you who have had surgery recently are feeling better today also.

That's good to know I'm on day 2 and can't sleep very good at all. I had my first surgery on the 9th but had a blockage and had to go back in on Friday the 12th.... Hoping things will get better soon

Oh my gosh this post is not good for me! I'm three days post op and it hurts so much to laugh but this post is just hilarious!!!

On another note, I havent been able to find gasx. Where are you buying it? No trouble getting small burps from the top, but nothing's passing below lol

Thanks for the laugh!

      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! 😞
