Im home!

Ok so I got home around one today and I was feeling really good, until about 4pm my left side is hurting really bad I know everyone says that its normal but wow! It feels like something is trying to push their way out and doing it really hard!! How are you feeling Nicole?

Glad to hear you are doing well even if you are having some pain!  Did you get a good script for pain killer?  I can only imagine how you feel since I had the band.  Even with that I was simply shuffling around until about the third day.

Some of your pain may be from the gas they used to pump you up.  I was told to take something for that.  I also had some bowel issues I wasn't prepared for -- but was told it was normal to have it just run out without warning.  I'm sore (I just came home today too. Had surgery Tuesday) But I'm doing pretty well.  Walking helped my gas pains some.  GOOD LUCK hang in there!

Hey Misty glad to hear you are doing good!  Well I was doing really good until yesterday afternoon.  Karlee and I both came down with a fever and just plain feeling like you know what.  I have had this horrible dry throat and now it is sore and I keep coughing.  So it has been a little painful coughing so much.  I called Dr. Tom because I was scared since I had a fever of 101.4 but Karlee is also running the same temp.  He said as long as I was going to the bathroom okay and no unusual pain or problems with my incision then it most likely just a virus.  Yesterday I only got one protein shake in because when you have the flu a protein shake is the last thing you want.  Okay enough rambling about me.  I was just bored since my fever finally broke and couldnt go back to sleep.

Well I still feel like crap I walk alot and do things I probley shouldn't do yet but I feel good one min and not the next odd I guess!

Congratulations! and I really hope that you start feeling better soon! sandi
