1 week out from surgery

I had surgery on Sept 10, 2020.

When I woke up, I expected to be in a lot of pain, but there was minimum pain! Yay! However, I am seriously exhausted!

Now we wait and see what the weight does. I am at 251 this morning (9/18/2020).

Hope that you are doing well! I was sleeved on the 8th. I was also lucky and not in a lot of pain.

I am hardly hungry... and I have been walking. It really does help the recovery.

Good luck to you!

I had almost no pain with this. In fact, that's fairly common (although some unlucky folks do experience pain...)

I had nerve blocks on both sides of my abdomen with my surgery. They were supposed to last 3 days. I never had any pain at all. Actually, my RNY is probably the easiest surgery I've ever had.

I'm 3 days out from mine. I have some incision pain when I overdo it, but overall things have been good. I did notice this morning that I'm starting to feel more tired, but I'm sure that will pass as everything adjusts.

I just find it interesting that the laparoscopic surgery is as painless as it is. I had a massive hiatal hernia fixed at the same time.

One additional thing. Does anyone’s stomach rumble all the time?
