Don't worry-you've got this.

I just had my RNY 9 hours ago & my pain is about a1 or 2 out of ten. Mostly sore throat from being intubated & pain when using abdominal muscles to sit up. No nausea, & I've had 108 ounces of water/protein shake already.

I feel WAY better than I anticipated, reading the posts on this forum. So maybe you'll be lucky like me!. (I had lots of people praying for me, & I was anointed w/ Oil of Unction at my church-maybe that's what did it. :)

Hi all, I might be discharged today just waiting for my doctor. The first day wasn't bad, but at night it was for me. I'm finally on Clear Liquids only waiting for my doctor to advance me to full liquids. Other than that, I'm walking around and just have pain and soreness when using abdominal muscles. Other than that, I want to go home.

      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!

      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!!
