4 days since surgery
Well I had my surgery on Monday the 18th. Monday was horrible I threw up repeatedly I still don't know if it was the anesthesia or the pain med, but by Tuesday I felt much better. Just a little disapponited when I weighed thank gosh they had warned me I would proably gain about 6lbs from the fluids. I weighed 211 at my preop appt and 207 the morning of surgery which I could not believe because I had a coulpe of last meal attacks. The I weighes 213 the day after ouch, but felt much better today when the scaled said 204. My hardest time of the day is 5-9pm maybe that's becaue I am finxing dinner for family and watching them eat. Today I left when they where eating and that helped. Overall my pain has been very minimal except for the middle bottom incision, which feels like it is burning and pulling every time I move. It is also alot more swollen than any of the others but has no sign of infection so I have just been using ice packs which help. I'm headed to the lake with a group of friends this weekend. I 've got my sugar free popscicles, jello, broth, and smar****er to munch on during the cookouts.
yeah i know its just temporary but im the same way w/ watching my bf eat. i just need to get up once i am done w/ my helping and walk around or do dishes or something..
im starting to feel part of gastric by pass is just a complete mind f*ck and completely understanding why some people go to therapists !
if that insicion perists in the next few days id call the doctor, i dont like the sounds of it being swollen. mine were pretty normal 4 days later.
good luck w/ everything and welcome to the bench!!!
