September 2017 Gastric Bypass surgeries



Recommended Posts

Awesome!!!! I'm still waiting on a confirmation on my surgery date but due to high confidence in my surgeon I started the liquid diet. Can I ask what meds you've had to take for surgery? I know I was prescribed norco, compazine, an anti acid and something else.

Sure. I was only taking Protonix prior to surgery. Came home with Protonix, ondansetron for nausia, Lovenox for blood clots, carafate(coats stomach), then I also have a scar cream and lidocain lotion for pain.

And Tylenol with codeine for pain.

Hi there! I had my bypass on 9/5 and would love some additional support! I'm in Upstate NY. Doing pretty well except for an incredibly irritating cough! Keeps me up so I haven't really had a good night sleep. Other than that everything went great and felling exponentially better each day!

I did it!!! Gastric Bypass was done yesterday morning. Spent last night in hospital and tonight I'm in my own bed. I won't lie, there is some pain but seems to be well managed with meds. Getting in and out of bed is the worst! Any movement hurts but today it is better than yesterday and I'm hopeful that continues. I passed swallow test and was told that if I tolerate clears tomorrow I can add shakes to full liquid diet.

I'll be having RNY too. Glad to hear you are doing well. If they put a tube down your throats that could explain the cough. Are you still on liquids?

      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! 😞
