Hi everyone,

Thanks for all your support. It really helped!!! The surgery went great. I did have a small hernia the Dr. Wynn repaired during the process. The whole surgery took about 45mins. I came home the next night because I meet all the requirements to be dicharged. I didn't have to much pain from the surgery itself. My pain was from gas and really bad nausca.Walking will help with the gas but the nausca was bit more to get under controll for me. they have me every med they could but they didn't help to much. Finally the switched my pain meds which were added to the nausca and they gave me this patch to put behind my ear.After that the nausca started to die down. So now I'm recovering better. I'm finding it difficut to get in all my fluids because I'm not hungry but I know I have to try. Does everyone feel this weird sensation when you are drinking and does it go away? It it because of the gas? I guess its like your trying to get it down and the gas is trying to push it back up at the same time. Thoughts?

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
