Anyone having surgery in Oct ?



Recommended Posts

I'm still in the hospital, I still have not passed gas or burped. I don't know what's wrong I've been walking like crazy.

I didn't really pass the gas until I got home and I walked A LOT. Once relief comes though, it's a sweet sweet relief. It'll happen. It's horrible until it does. Be strong!

Getting discharged right now, I really hope the gas comes out when I get home. This is driving me crazy. Do you guys know if gas x will work?

I work in a nursing home where they purée just about anything they can serve regular for those who can't chew or have swallow issues. So I guess any things possible they have purée pankake all the time...

@@TristanNicole I stopped taking the liquid pain medication before I went home. Couldn't stand the taste,but once the gas started moving, the pain was bearable. I'm one week post op today and the pain gets better and better. Im looking forward to next Thursday when I go back for my 2 week check up and hopefully can add more foods. Good luck to you.

I'm hoping to not take the pain medication for much longer, I do seem to be having residual pain not associated with gas, just uncomfortable... My back has also been quite sore, not sure if that's from surgery or not.

I continue to feel better every day, still have bouts of nausea, I'm burping and passing gas which is definitely relieving. It's a lot harder to get in all the food and Water, the full feeling almost makes me sick. Each day is getting better thought. I worked up some courage and strength today to make an Instagram page, if anyone would like to follow my name is TNB_RNY_2015!

      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! 😞
