12 Hours Until My Surgery Check-In!



Recommended Posts

My surgery went well yesterday. My surgery time was 7:30 am and I was discharged by 1:30 pm that day because I was walking around and able to tolerate liquids. I'm in less pain than I expected from the surgery and am moving around pretty well. The nausea is not fun, but I expect that will improve in the next few days. I hope things went well for everyone else!

My time was 7:30am yesterday. I'm still impatient, dr didn't let me start Clear Liquids till this morning. The pain has been horrible on my left side at the incision sights. I'm able to walk around but the pain is just unbearable and the morphine every 4 hours just hasn't helped at all. They switched me to a Tylenol/codone pills an hour ago and we are seeing how they work. Less nauseous for sure, but still in petty bad pain. No real other complications. Will see if tommorrows any better. Good luck everyone!

It's getting a little better each day. The pain on my left side is still pretty awful but that's really the only issue I'm having so I shouldn't complain.

Getting the Protein and Water in is going to be difficult....I managed to get all my Vitamins and supplements in yesterday but wasn't anywhere close to the Protein or Water goals. Building up to that as best I can....it really is a full time job!

Hoping everyone else is doing well too!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
