Home from my revision

[Bryn910 519]

I just had my revision from sleeve to RNY yesterday. Surgeon said all went well and I am home. Have no problem with fluids but now just started drinking Protein which is ok. I am keeping a log of everything I drink.

I am having a lot of back pain. But I know how hard the operating table is and hospital beds suck. And it’s so hard for me to get comfortable here at home. I am In a big arm chair with an ottoman and a heating pad on my back but nothing is helping really. I already know I won’t be able to sleep in my bed so the chair it’ll be.

I have Tylenol with code in which is taking the edge off. I am also peeing sooooo much which is annoying but it helps with me walking more I guess lol

Overnight only. Surgery was 7:30 am Thursday and I went home at 2pm Friday. Had no complications *knock on wood* and thank you!

Thanks! I plan on getting outside to walk in the morning before it gets too hot here. Walking does make the pain go away slightly. But still hard for me to sleep

I slept in my recliner for 2 nights and then moved to the couch for one night since it kept me from rolling over. By the 4th day I could sleep in my bed with pillows around me. You are peeing a lot because they filled you with fluids. I tried to drink my fluids earlier in the day so I would not have to get out of bed as much. Best wishes in a speedy recovery.
