Had my surgery this morning at 730a. Had lots of level 9 pain at first. Then i got a Morphine injection. Finally pain is a 2. Morphine works better for me than the Fentanyl. Thr pain now feels like i have either been coughing or have been doing a lot of abdominal exercises. I have to stay 2 nights because i have severe sleep apnea and had some breathing pauses in recovery. Glad i brought my c pap with me. Then tonight i went to sleep snd one of my incisions started bleeding. The nurse reinforced with a new dressing. And i went for a walk while the staff changed my linen. Back to sleep soon.

Thank you for the update. Glad your pain is getting controlled.

Thanks for letting us know how you doing and pray you have speedy recovery

I had surgery Tuesday, have severe pain that I received morphine thru IV, the gas pain was bad for first couple of days, I just walked and walked. The worst thing was the nausea, so bad ,I threw up several times, had to contrast dye x-ray to make sure everything was ok. Which it was, got patch behind my ear for nausea, received oral nausea meds too. Just changes my pain meds from Norco to oxycodone to see if that helps with the nausea. I keep telling myself everyday gets better.

Sleeve for me on same day. What is Mini bypass?

That is nice I watch the video on Mini Bypass if know about that I would had that did about I don't know if do it where I live

By the way, this is the first time that I'm writing in forums, I was always scared too leave a comment because English is my second language and I never had confidence to write something. I'm glad that I dare to write in here and express my feelings, because I want to change my view about everything not just food after surgery. xx
