How did it go? Hope you’re healing up nicely!
I'm actually doing quite good as far as pain goes. I feel like I'm at a level 4ish on the pain chart. It was only bad when I first got out of surgery but now the pain is simmering down.

I converted from sleeve to bypass yesterday (June 26) to help with reflux. The recovery this time is so much better, as I knew what to expect. I am bummed I’m off the good IV pain meds, as I do feel like I’ve been beat up in my mid-section. I just walk the halls and stick to drinking my 15cc of Water every 15 minutes. I hope to go home tomorrow, on my 40th birthday!! I hope everyone else is doing great.

Today is day four post op. I have had insane mood swings (also was having PMS the past few days) but this morning they took my drain out ( have someone's hand to squeeze for that awful part) and afterwards I feel like a new person. I'm finally going home today after such a long stay and I feel totally ready for that. For everyone in recovery now, know that I reached some extremely low points over the past few days but I got through it and you will too!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
