Hello Everyone,, I'm all done,, had my surgery on 5/21 and came home on 5/25,, they kept me an extra night as I could  not pee on my own,, but I finally did.  When  I woke up after surgery,, I thought he didn't do it,, as there was no pain at all.  I never used the pain pump,, I still have no pain,, doesn't feel like he did anything,, I do notice that I get tired quickly,, but that's it.  I'm finding it hard to take in all the liquids,, but I'm trying. Thanks for all the well wishes. Mary Anne

Hi Mary Anne,

Congratulations!!!  I also had RNY on the 21st (at St Rapheals) but came home home Wed Evening.  I't great you had no pain at all (I stopped the Pump tues afternoon and have had notyhing since).  Getting in all my fluids is slowly getting easier.

Best of luck,

Brian

So glad to hear you are home and doing well. It is hard getting in all the fluids, just keep trying like you are and I am sure you will do fine. All the best on your weight loss journey. Sher

Congratulations!!!  The journey begins for all of us.  I had my surgery on May 21 too.  I came home on the 22nd.  I took one pain med after I arrived home (it was the car ride I think) and didn't need any more after that. The gas was very uncomfortable up until Thurs.  I am dealing with constipation now but I'm going to try prune juice tomorrow.  I don't know if it is the chocolate in the shakes or so much milk.

It's probably the anastasia, if the prune juice doesn't do it try a stool softener, if that doesn't work - don't wait too long and try a fleet - it's important to make sure you go!! Congratulations to all of you *****cently came home - may your journeys be healthy and full of joy to a new you!
Warm Regards - Tammy -
