Hey ladies. I'm doing well too. Gas pain makes it challenging to breathe when I'm not on pain killers, but that's my only complaint. Good luck with everything today!

So, I have struggled. :(

I had a reaction to the anesthesia and have been throwing up. Thank heavens for phenergan but all I want to do is sleep. My back also has been bothering me (from a herniated disc); my back injection wore off last week.

I am walking but had a hard time drinking anything. Are you all noticing a difference in your taste buds? It is weird that I'm not hungry.

I'm reminding myself that this is all temporary. Hugs to you all!!!!!

@@thundermama I'm really sorry you're have such a hard time! I'm sending you positive, healing energy. I haven't noticed a difference in taste, mostly I'm just crazy thirsty. Keep us posted on your recovery

I'm having a tough time with pain. Ever since the PCA pump stopped I cannot be pain free. My upper abdomen is still full of a lot of air. I try to get up and walk around the house every hour.

I can only get in 2 sips of Water, hot tea or Jello .

My pain is just unbearable at times. I came home yesterday. I was doing great til I got home..

Very strange

Hang in there..we can do this!

      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!!
