Revision - Tomorrow - Wednesday



Recommended Posts

I think that's a pretty normal reaction as the time gets closer. I've had several surgeries so you'd think that I'd be used to this by now, but I've gotten nervous before each and every one of them - usually starting a few days before.

Its a trip for sure !! You are lucky you get to sleep. I could not pee after surgery and was threatened with a catheter. I ended up being able to go early that evening. How is the hernia ? I think that hernia made it worse for the both of us. Hang in there

Hernia!!!! Horrendous! Eeek!

i think this is the worst. Worst than csections. Day 2 almost - better since they gave me something stronger than Tylenol. I was able to get in more liquids. Doing all the functions they want so I believe home today.
I wish they had a gastric pillow like last time ... might be a big help this time around. Maybe Amazon lol

@ge0rgette2 Are you kidding me ? They don't have you on something strong after going through all of that ? That is just horrible !

Do you not have a binder ? I asked for one immediately .

Ask them if they have a binder. It wraps around you and keeps everything from moving . I don't know what I would do without one. I need it to sleep because I move around a lot .

Is the Toradol working ? That crap would not have touched my pain.

Hope you are feeling better.

        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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
