Surgery this Friday!! HELP!



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

Today is the 9th day of my post up and I've been put on pureed/soft foods. Here's the issue now... I've been ok, no nausea, no vomiting. I did something really bad. I actually cheated and ate a chicken sandwich and I've been eating some solid food but not much. I ate very, very, very slow and in small bites. It hasn't caused any nausea or vomiting. My band has just been placed but there isn't any fills yet. What can I do??? I feel so terrible. Maybe I wasn't ready to have the procedure.

Hello everyone,

Hello everyone. My lap band surgery went well. When the anesthologist came in, he was talking to me and put something in my IV and I can't remember anything after that. All I remember is waking up. They told me they need to repair a hiatal hernia. I'm at home now and in the worst pain of my life because of the incicions but more because the gas is shooting up to my shoulders. Do you recommend I drink a Protein made shake? Or just wait it out?
I appreciate each and everyone of you and I thank you for being there for me.

How do you feel? Are you sick at all? Don't beat yourself up. Just try to remember why you had the surgery. Also think of the complications that can occur from eating foods your not supposed to. Be strong you got this

I feel perfectly fine. I don't feel nauseous and I haven't even vomited. I just hope it won't cause any issues. I'm barely eating, I've only ate twice today. Ugh, I hope I'll be ok. Thank you for your encouraging words, I really appreciate it!

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
