July 19th-ers!

Hey guys (Penelope, Curt, ShellyAnne, etc), I can't sit here long enough to go through all the old posts to see where you guys have posted, just yet. But I will later this week. I hope all your surgeries went well. According to my surgeon and everyone else, mine went perfect. My greatest problem was the gas. My stomach was at least 3 times the normal size. Until today, I've been in alot of pain, which has caused me to get behind on my eating and drinking, but I'm making up for it now. I still haven't had a bowel movement either, I'm hoping it comes today!!! Other than that, I'm doing really well. I've got 6 incisions because they had to take my gallbladder out and they did a liver biospy. Which I'm grateful for. My vitals are great. I'm still getting my lovenox shot until Friday. At least I don't have to worry about blood clots. How about you guys?

I'm in the exact same boat as you are. I'm finally feeling somewhat normal today. The pain is getting better, though not totally diminished. It's been just gas pain as well. (I posted specifics yesterday). My surgeons told me everything looked awesome and went great. I have not had a BM either, but am hoping too soon. I think that will also relieve some pressure. Keep us posted on your progress!

i'm doing well. back to work as of yesterday, down 12lbs as of today! I posted today how I am doing. I mostly write on my profile though. Glad to see you came through well!
