3 Days Post Op

I had gastric bypass on 9/20. The issues I have had are scar tissue from a previous surgery. I came home the evening of 9/21. My pain level went up after I got home. Then it started going down as expected. Today I started protein shakes and I am in severe pain. I am still very bloated and uncomfortable. I feel very cold. But I don't have a fever.

I'm back at the hospital. The CT scan shows internal bleeding.

:( Sorry you ended up back in the hospital.

We had surgery the same day and I too have a post-op complication.

I hope all goes well and keep us posted on how you're doing.

Glad you are ok!

No BM at all? That isn't good you could have a blockage. I experienced that with an unrelated surgery. Landed me back in the hospital for 5 days. It's very serious. Call your doctor today!

@@laneydasilva I had my surgery on the same date ' I have that exist pain ! It's our liver! I was told

Our liver got moved around some and it's sore. Also suffering with constipation . I finally made it all happen this morning but had to use two different products. My issues now are feeling hungry and not being able to find things that satisfy me.
