Anyway, I feel a lot better than I thought I would. The gas is the worst part right now. I'm sure once the drugs wear off, I will see what it really is.

Well I hope things continue that way for you. I dislike getting an IV a lot. Just because my Veins are **** 🤣

Well I spoke too soon.......heparin shots in the stomach. Ugh that sucks.
Otherwise, I feel good.
The nurse woke me for vitals and of course here I now lay wide awake.

I honestly feel really good.
I'm having some coffee right now, the iv bag is almost done and then I am getting discharged early afternoon.

I will tell you....small sips and walk.
I get up and walk every hour and then come back and use that incentive spirometer.
Oh and I had the lovely surprise of heparin shots in my stomach.

Good luck to you today!!!!!

Thank you! I will have a heparin shot before surgery so I am not looking forward to that.

Thanks for the advice!

I actually had a male nurse growl me out because my veins were " small", told him "Maybe,it's a good thing I'm having a weight loss so my body will match them soon!" Jeezy Peasy, screen at me for somethi,g I CAN control not the veins GOD gave ME! Didn't much like him anyway, always acted like I was an imposition to take care off, only sour note in any of my Medical contacts at OSU, everybody else kind, considerate and want me to succeed in my Weight Endeavors. So Hairy Larry can go jump in the lake, far as I'm concerned!👨

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!

      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!!
