I came to the hospital on 7/11 for a RNY but the surgery bf me had complications and was still going on at 7 pm. I was scheduled for 10:50 am surgery. Long story short they admitted me and did my surgery at 2:30 pm the next day. Since I have had previous abdominal surgery the doctor knew my case was going to be difficult. Due to the amount of scar tissue in my abdomen I had to have a gastric sleeve. Doctor felt it wasn't safe to proceed with gastric bypass.
Surgery went well. Today is 7/14 and I'm trying to finish the last leg of the fluid challenge which has me drinking four ounces in one hour and then another four ounces in four hours. I have one more
Ounce to go but I'm so stuffed. Funny food really isn't a concern right now. Not taking much pain meds either. Having to crush pills is nasty. My pain meds are liquid but horrible. I hope to be home in an hour.
