Surgery is DONE!!!!!
Jul 10, 2014
So I had my surgery on Tuesday, expected discharge was wednesday. That is what i was expiating, Surgery went well, i was up and walking Tues. night feel uncomfortable but good. Then Wednesday came and boy was i nauseous!!! I usually don't get nauseous but messing with your stomach ors a lot of crazy things. They had me on every anti nausea meds they had. Yes i was doing the "wtf id I do" chant. I slept as often as I could and depending on my nausea, basically a crappy sleep. FINALLY at about 7pm they gave a percoset and some zofran and i was knocked out!!Woke up feeling much better and started my liquids. I am still very sore and keep getting nauseous but nothing like day 2. I was lucky because all bariatric patients get a bari suite and I did not have a roommate.
I am home now resting. These protein shakes are going to be a struggle for me!
Just wanted to let all f you coming up for surgery; I am not going to sugarcoat the 1st 2 days sucked. but i believe I did the right thing in the long run. And everyone handles things differently.I never would have thought I would react the way I did.
So thats all the feedback I have, feel free to ask me any questions about my experience.
