Post op surgery was the 25th, VSG
My surgery was on the 25th, came home on the 27th, was expecting a whole lot more pain, was pleasantly surprised that was not the case, I was more than happy to get out of bed and walk after the surgery. The worst part for me was the nausea which I have a problem with no matter what surgery I have...I was sent home with pain meds but have not had to use them, I am up and moving. I wanted and got to shower the next day which felt so good, I would say that the one thing I did most of was sleep because I was very tired..I am now 4 days out and feel great, tender of course, but feel great..have not been able to get down foods yet or protein shakes because of nausea but will try again today..the more you walk the better you feel, get moving..and water, sip water all day long to stay hydrated..The care I received was great, always informed, and Dr. Lalor is the best, very down to earth and also wanting the best for you.
