My first major meltdown...

I am just feeling really icky, I haven't been able to get any of my vitamins in because they just come back up. I am exhausted and cranky.  I ended up at the ER for IV fluids last night and we still haven't been able to get anyone to come clean/change my dressing on my PICC line, muchless give me fluids.  I'm sore but its been mostly bareable. The gas pains have just been the worse and Gas X strips don't seem to help much.  I'm not getting near enough fluids in because my tummy just feels really full and I am afraid to try to pu**** since Ive been having the dry heaves. I just don't know what to do :( The phennergin isn't working and the er gave me a sublingual med for nausea last night but ive not tried it yet.  I haven't eaten anything at all since being released on Friday and I've not even thought bout food or been hungry (not even head hunger) sooo I don't know what to do. I feel really overwhelmed and I just want to get back to normal :(

Dear we all go through those feelings right after surgery... I remember crying the day I came home and thinking what in the hell have i done to myself. Just know that there is light at the end of the tunnel and it only gets easier. Keep repeating positive things to yourself and the time will fly.. We're all hear to listen and let you know we care and if you need anything let us know... May God hold you in His hands and comfort you today... The gas pains will go away and they are very painful... They were more painful for me than the surgery.. but walking helps move them out honestly... so does using your incentive spirometer.. as much as it hurts.. Take care of yourself and focus on you right now. I'll keep you in my prayers.

Bless your heart....HUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGS   I can't say I know how you feel since I haven't had the RNY yet...but from reading the other posts it has to be awful...but nothing you can't make it thru.  You are strong and you will get thru this. Just think about what it will be like to buy new clothes and SHOES!   You are in my prayers and take the time to heal and let your body repair itself. Don't try to rush anything. Hang in there!

Honey...I am there with you.  I just had my RNY on 7/25 and I was very depressed after I got home from the hospital.  All I could think is why did I do this to myself!  I am only one week ahead of you, and I promise, the physical stuff will get better!!!  Just know that God did not bring you this far and then decided to leave you on the side of the road!
