Surgery is complete! Onto road to recover

  • Popular Post
Hey everyone!

So had my surgery today all is going well so far other then the discomfort of all the gas still in my body (just feels like I have to burp but I can’t) I’ve gotten up to walk a couple times so far to keep the blood moving. I have to stay at the hospital for night, unknown when I can get the scan to check to make sure there’s no leakage but it’s already 10pm so I assume it’ll wait until tomorrow. Quite annoying because all I can have is ice chips until then, water isn’t allowed.

Onto the road to a brand new life!

Congrats and all the best...

Yeah, they won't let you sip water or anything until after your leak test. How's the nausea? Congrats on your surgery and good luck on your weight loss journey.

remember to keep a pillow handy (in your lap) in case of sneezes and coughs....good luck Skinny Jon
