Had Lap RNY on Tuesday morning and was discharged at noon today for the three hour drive home.  Now I am tired and a little sore.  My sore throat seems to be back - from the stuff down my throat during surgery.  Was fine this morning, but now is bothering me.  My tummy is sore, not from the incisions but from the action that occurred inside,  but mostly the pain is due to gas, I believe.  Can be hard to tell really.  I have been sipping all day and am not sure if I fill u*****t since I am not familiar with my new anatomy and get confused over gas pains that may be pouch related instead.  I am going to concentrate on the fluid intake first since I have a terrible fear of becoming dehydrated. Tomorrow I will start with the 1 ounce/twice a day of something thicker like V8 or cream soup and begin my vitamins.

Congrats on your date,  My surgery date is also April 21.   When do you have to start your fast?

It's not too bad - I have a pretty high pain tolerance, but honestly I don't think that's why.  I've been up walking around, walked to the corner this afternoon, and that helped a lot.  I have very noisy "gurgling" in my guts, though, which is pretty weird but not painful. 

Hello to all .. or to anyone *****ads this 

My surgery date is April 21st..  a little less then 2 weeks away... I'm looking for people who are having their surgery the same date or close to the same date to add for mutual support!  

Hope to hear from you!
