They didn't kill me....although they tried!
I'm finally back home this morning. Talk about having "wtf" moments. I had the RNY Thurs along with the repair of my herniated bell button, oh, and lets throw in the removal of my gallbladder. Thurs night I felt great. Than Fri the cramps from the gas started hot and heavy. Sat & Sun I couldn't get anything out. And I thought I was going to die. They tried everything and I only got a little relief. Yesterday was a new pil. Redline something or other. It slowly starting to give me some relief last night and than this morning at 2:00 AM they had to replace the commode in my room. LOL! I still don't feel good but I had to get out of that hospital. I'm weak, tired and still sore. First thing I did was get a shower and my dear wife just made me the best tasting, low clorie, Cambell's cream of tomato soup ever. I will never eat cream of chicken soup or vanilla pudding for the rest of my life.
Thanks for all the kind comments when I went in. Writing this is the first thing I'm doing before calling all the concerned relatives.
If you could give me a hand to the bench I would appreciate it. Thanks for caring. And I really mean that. I'll read Sunday Weigh-in later. Time for me to rest.
By the way this is a younger man's sport.

Welcome to the losers bench!
The hospital can be a rough time I know it was for me, but glad to here you survived. Over the weeks and months things will get easier so just roll with it and follow you surgeons protocol.

Thanks for all the encouragement from everyone. I understand it's a slow process and that I have to be patient. I'm taking it slow now as my gas pains have eased up and now I am realizing that I have 7 wounds to my belly. Here's to better days ahead and good times on the "bench".
You know when I first started reading this forum I thought some of you guys were a little carried away with farts. Over the past 6 days I have come to realize that "you understated the seriousness of the problem". LOL!
