3rd Wk post-op overdone it walking too fast

[RhondaHigdon 40]

HI,

I don't know what I was thinking. I felt good? Anyway, a couple of days ago I walked over a mile 3 days in a row and walked as fast and hard as I could. That was a huge mistake. I wasn't thinking about my stomach bouncing around and not only did my Dr, do my gastric bypass he did 5hrs worth of work on my messed up intestines. I didn't do anything the past 2 days I was hurting so bad, not to mention yesterday I ran a fever all day that didn't get above 100.4. I was going to call my Dr today, but the fever is gone, so that is a good sign. However, not only am I so sore, I have lost my apatite, not my taste. Also, I hadn't had any problem with heartburn, but today it has been so terrible I took 2 of the Omeprozole pills. That didn't even work. Any insight to what might be going on with me? I would so greatly appreciate any feedback. Thanks Rhonda

I think you’re right, you may have done too much too quickly. But hopefully that’s all and you’ll be back in good shape in no time.

Get Well Soon ❤️

Thanks so much. I do feel better, except last night I started having really sharp pain off and on under my left rib cage? IDK what this means but it hurts really bad when it comes.

Since surgery, when I overdo it, I feel terrible. Like shaky and nauseated, along with the soreness. Make sure you drink plenty of Water for the next few days, and get plenty of Protein to aid with healing. Do Protein Shakes if nothing else will go down. Early on after surgery, I did have some heartburn. If it persists, be sure to discuss with your surgeon.

Take care 💕

Thanks so much. I do feel much better with the exception of very stabbing pain that comes off and on under my left rib cage? IDK? I get so worried about something being wrong. I pray not. Thanks again, Rhonda

THIS so much. I went for a 14 km/8.7 mile walk in week 6 (not entirely planned, we got a little lost), in terrain, and I was ... numb and shaky all night. Never experienced that before.
