Any October 2016 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Okay, I just got home. Pain from surgery practically nothing but the inflation gas was awful. I ended up spiking a slight fever and having some tachycardia so they kept me an extra night. I'm glad they did. Now home I'm working on drinking enough Water. I might consider having some juice later. Pain is very low if at all. I will confess to feeling very emotional and I'm not sure what is causing it. I'm prone to tears right now but I think it's just because of my body has been through so much.

Good luck tomorrow!! It's not so bad at all.

First night in the hospital was painful getting up to try and go to the bathroom. Day 2 they took me off IV and tried to have me swallow nausea pill. It came right back up. I had bad nausea for two days that I had to do nausea suppositories. That worked really well so I could keep down Clear Liquids. Only needed that for day three. I am now 11 days post op and doing good on full liquids.

Surgery was 930am yesturday, dident get back to my room until well after 1pm, I could not kick the anesthesia. I was out of it well into the night. I've had severe nausea and gas pains. Had to switch from morphine to Tylenol. Threw up twice yesturday what looked like old blood. It is no fun forcing that out I had spasms for a few hours after. I have been closing my eyes here and thier but have not really sleep much. After trying several different nausea meds I finally started to get some releif. Now just waiting for the morning hours to go for the Bari swallow so I can be cleared for liquids. My surgeon does not allow it until this test is cleared 24 hours after surgery. I'm trying to hang in thier.

Mini gastric bypass on October 10th with complications but doing well and feeling so much better. Trying to make sure I get my Protein and Water down.. I am in the pureed stage and have had salmon and kale, yogurt applesauce, scrambled eggs, turkey with yogurt. Cannot eat much so I am drinking Protein shakes usually one a day.Scheduled to see my dietician on November 15th and have tried not to keep weighing myself.

Hi Everyone.. Had my surg on 10/31. Just got home from hosp this afternoon. The nausea was horrific. Also started to get a pretty good headache, which I still have.

Gas was under control, as I was allowed Gas-X strips every 8 hours. Was receiving shots intravenously of Zofran daily, wearing a anti nausea patch, and today a more powerful, anti-nausea crushed tablet was added. Also very tired and weak.

So for me, the worst part of this procedure was/is:

1. The anticipation of surgery... yuk

2. The nausea.

Thank you again, to all who helped me get through this... I'm so glad it is over. Just pray this nausea goes away! Good Luck to all us, going forward! :)

Just got home today from having surgery on Halloween. I don't regret it all. However, I still have a lot of gas pains and a little nausea. Working on fluids is hard when everything you take in tastes so weird. Water has been the best thing ever. I'm ready to get on with things and get this post op party started!

      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! 😞
