How do you feel 5 days Post-Op?

I would like to know how people feel 5 days post-op with RNY? My husband has an important meeting out of town and wants me to go. I will only be 5 days post op and need advice from you all that have just had the surgery and it is still fresh in your mind. Thanks for your advice in advance. Blessings, Angel

I was still sore but able to do what needed to be done ( I have a 3 yr old home with me all day) . Just take it easy and have a good time!

Hi Angel, Mine was a sleeve gastrectomy, which I think is a little "easier" than the RNY. I would not have gone with anyone to any meeting now, though. It takes all my time and energy just to get the liquids, purees and water down me to be able to focus on anything else. It's also nice not to have to dress up, wear make up and make small talk. Take this time to take care of yourself, you'll have plenty of time to socialize in a couple of weeks' time! Blessings Rosemarie

Hi Angel, Pain wise I was fine, however my fifth day post op was the first day I was home alone and it was enough to get my self taken care of (like the above poster said, water, pureed, etc). I can't imagine having to get on a plane, or even worse having to ride a long distance in the car, and then having to be nice to people. Let hubby go alone this time and plan a great time on the next trip! Holly

Thanks for all of you that posted a reply. I will take your advice and stay home. I appreciate the time you took to explain. My prayers are with you all. Blessings, Angel

I went and got my hair done, I couldn't walk long distances but i felt good. I had the RNY done
