I had my surgery on Monday, January 21st... it seems like today I'm not feeling well.. and I'm just trying to remind myself that it's probably all normal feeling.. but at the same time, I'm worried that maybe I'm not eating the right foods.. or I'm doing something wrong... and I didn't go through all of this for it not to work... so today I am a little down.

I'm better. I have some soreness but I know that's to be expected. I definitely don't feel like I was going to die like yesterday

Today’s a little better but I’m still incredibly sore. I don’t want to take my Norco or liquid Tylenol because it’s a gross tasting gel so I’m just off pain meds

Day 3 post op .. today it’s been really rough have been feeling very weak and lots of nausea . Tried to get some Protein in and that was a big fail !!! Today I find it so hard to drink Water or anything. Going to try some Jello now and some walking . I just don’t know how I can get this drinking on
ROUGH Day ☹️

I had my surgery on the 23rd. The pain is severe, especially when I get up to walk. Tolerating fluids very well. Is anyone else having to wear a stomach compression belt?

Had my 2 week follow up and I got the clear to do any activities I want and got to move to purées. I’m feeling pretty good...so those only a few days out, hang in there. It gets better fairly quickly.

@Mjrteach: I got sleeved on 1/18 and am still wearing the abdominal compression thing they gave me. Not as much but I do feel that it helps me with support.

I had my surgery on 1/22 and just today they let me go home. The surgery went well, the problem was that my heart rate was very high, my red blood cell count was really low, and my sugars also crashed. I also had a very large bruise at one of my incision sites that kept growing and growing.

The main concern was that I might have an internal bleed. So they ran a cat scan and found no leaks inside of me. Eventually I tracked down the source of the bruise. One of the cna's gave me a heparin shot on the belly close to that incision right after surgery.

Now I'm home having to test my blood pressure and sugars twice a day.

In general, I feel pretty good considering I just has a RNY. I have gas pains but nothing that would make me scream. Walking helps a lot even though it is the last thing you want to do when you are in pain. I can swallow liquids fine. When I get up, it feels like my internal organs just drop to the bottom of my torso. It is a very weird sensation and it hurts too. I can't believe how happy I feel when I burp or fart! Never thought that farting would be anything to be proud of. At this point, I don't even care who is there😂
