Hi everyone,
I just want you to know that my surgery was rescheduled for tomorrow. The doctor's first surgery had complications and went very long.  I'm okay with it since what's meant to be is meant to be. A refreshed doctor is A-OK in my book!

Topic: RE: Surg date 11/10 now home
Hi I had my rNY on Monday, I had pain down my left side, but mostly in my left shoulder.
I attended a support group meeting that Thursday, and when I asked what that pain was
they all yelled out gas.
It finally went away yesterday and I feel well.
Hang in there I am sure it is gas too,  Who knew so much about gas before??

Good Luck.

Thank you for all your good wishes.
I had RYN on last Monday and went to work this past Monday.,

I feel great, I hope all of you waiting are as lucky as I was.

I had some gas pain in my left shoulder that drove me nuts for a week, but
it finally left me yesterday.

I have already lost 16 pounds, not sure where but none the less, I am thrilled.

Now all I can think of is what to have on Thanksgiving!!

Keep up the good work Tanya.
I had surgery the same day and I went back to work a week later. I feel so blessed.
I am down 16 pounds already.
Stay strong.  I am wondering what to eat for Thanksgiving, any ideas?

Well I just got home about an hour ago. My surgery went well. It was a revision from Lapband to Medial RNY. They also took out my gallbladder. I was so groggy and dizzy for the first few hours and then they realised that it was the Morphine. Once I stopped taking that I started to get better. Instead they gave me liquid loritab and that worked for my pain. I mostly am having pain at one specific incision on the left side. This is where they said they took out my port. I couldn't believe it when they told me I had eleven incisions. Last time I only had six. Now that I am home I am trying to do too much. And I am putting myself in pain. So I am just gonna sit here and play online for a while.

Anyone else from the 17th want to share their story...
