congrats you did it. praying for you for a speedy recovery

Sorry about your husband. My pain level was quite high for the first two days, then it eased off midway through the third. Getting the drain out helped a lot.

im glad ur doing better. i didnt get a drain thank god

I didn't get a drain either. Today isn't too bad. Some gas pains. I had a hernia fix as well, but we knew going in. The doc said my hernia was much larger than shown on the EDG. He also said that I had one of the largest stomachs hes seen on a low bmi patient. It explains alot. Between having a huge stomach and the acid reflux hunger pains. Thats why I was always hungry.

Hello all!

Glad we made it through. I'm in pain too, and I'm hungry ???? I realy wanted to be one of those people who are never hungry for the first 9 months to a year.

My barium swallow before surgery showed a small hiatel hernia, but when I asked my docs resident doctor about it, she said my doctor doesn't do hernia repair. I hope the hernia is smalll, but maybe that explaines hunger pains.

I've drinken three little medicin cups of Water, and I will have broth snd Jello in a few minutes. Have you all eaten yet?

Also, no drain for me either.

You're not alone. I have bad pain too. I was on th Delodid pump that i pushed myself, until this afternoon. Then they changed me to Percocet every 4 hours, and tylenonl. Can they give you some Tylenol. I tried eating some broth and jello and my stomach hurt, anf I felt sick, got bad hiccups, but didn't reallg feel full.

It's what's to be expected....We just had our surgeries yesterday. Little bu liytle it will get better. Praying for us all.

im in so much pain that im regreting this. its horrible.

i dont know whats hurting so bad, my sleeve or my hernia repair its going to be a long night

Are you in the hospital, or outpatient? If you're at the hospital, can you tell them you're in too much pain. Maybe they can give you more pain medication. I'm hurting too, and scared...I think it's pretty normal.
