Gall Bladder 1 week later

Jul 20, 2011

It has been a week since they took out my gall bladder, and and I am uncomfortable, which is tons better than being in pain.  Still have pain with certain movements but things are coming along.  I don't understand how any one can say the surgery was a piece of cake.  The pain was so much more than the RNY but overall energy, strength, and over yucky feeling this was better.   I will not be out for a month with this I can tell already. Gonna have to get online and do some research, because I keep hearing from people things they can't eat after wards but they haven't told me any diet limits. Gain 10 pounds with all IVs and stuff but as of today abck to where I was so not too bad I can take a week of no weight loss, to prevent another attack.

OMG I almost forgot the past part (or worst part) of being in hospital.  My surgery was done was my bariatric surgeon so everything they used on me was intended for a much larger person.  My gown was huge on me the, strecher they wheeled me to my room on was huge.  The whole time I was there all nurse keep saying how small I was. Even my Dr said I was thin at at one point and then added "er"  we all laughed.  I am still  obesse on the charts, but that is about nornal now days right?  LOL
