I was sad too - I was talking to a lady who needed an listening ear and then I turned around and you were all gone - didn't get my hugs from anyone except Heather.

Hi everyone! I'm home last night about 6:30 and although I felt yucky it was so nice to be home in my own bed. Monday pain was not bad but yesterday was pretty painful. The liquid vicodan gives me horrible dreams so I am trying tylenol today and it seems to be working.

I really feel like I was kicked in the gut by a horse! I had an unknown hernia so I got the two for one special. yesterday was an interesting day at Kaiser as the power went out 2x's and once while I was waiting for the upper gi so that took a while to reset all the eqt and computers. Then at 3 pm the doctor released me but it took them two hours to get me checked out so I was a little ansy (hubby was even more ansy) waiting to get on the road and try and beat any traffic. I was just glad to get home.

I haven't had any nausea or anything and have eaten a crystal light popsicle and some broth so far today.

Ah, funny thing. Saturday my hubby and I went to Celebrate our anniversary we went to the movies and lunch. The only thing we shared was an order of potstickers but we both got so sick Sunday I was freaking out that I would have to cancel surgery. I couldn't believe it! We had it coming out both ends! yucky! Well, about 1 on Sunday seemed to feel better so I didn't call and cancel. The good part is my stomach was really empty for surgery and I was down to 260! 37 pds down from orienatation day which was exactly 3

months before the surgery day!

walk and rest is my motto today!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        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!!
