I had the RNY on Wednesday the 5th. I also, had the headache until today. Not sure why. When i mentioned it to my Surgeon he made no comments. Itching means healing. Congratulations to us.

I'm glad you are ok now

I got my Roux an Y Bypass on April 12th and I'm having a great recovery so far. I was prepared for so much worse.

I'm so happy for you that you are recovering ok

Hello everyone my revision from sleeve to RNY was April 11th. Everything went well. Pain was controlled very well. At no point was it intolerable. I came home Thursday evening. My biggest problem is gas. My stomach and back is filled with gas and nothing's moving it. I've been walking taking gas-x using heating pad. Nothing is working. Just sent my hubby to the drug store to grab mylacon drops and hope maybe that will help. Any suggestions on the gas?. Silly me put on a sports bra to go to the store to grab protein water and the darn sports bra ripped the glue right out of the incision between my breast. It look like it will be ok but I asked my hunny to grab some steri strips as well. I don't know what the heck I was thinking. Thought since it wasn't a wire it would be ok.

Wow I hope everything will be ok soon praying for you

Did anyone else put on a ton of weight from all the Iv fluids and gas? I came on 11lbs heavier than what I weighed in the hospital the afternoon of surgery.

Glad you're up & moving! The gas was crucial for me too...it works its way out eventually!


I am on day 5 of my 10 day/800 calorie/liquid diet and thankfully doing ok. My surgery is 4/21... aside from the liquid and puréed foods what recommendations do any of you who are already post surgery suggest pick up to have for when I get home from the hospital?


@cdevine1 congrats on your upcoming surgery. I suggest having all your Vitamins couple different protein powders, sf gello, sf popsicles, and whatever else is on your list of can eat the first week after surgery. I suggest not buying too much because our taste buds tend to change after surgery but do have at least a week worth of what you need awaiting you when you arrive home from the hospital. There's a young lady on here who's surgeon recommend a month supply on hand when you come home from the hospital But that will be your personal preference of how much.

April 18th..
