Good Luck Zandy!!!! I can't tell you how you will feel after surgery, everyone's pain is individualized. I had lap band 2 weeks ago, and my best friend had rny, and we both felt about the same, both back up on our feet pretty quick, out of bed the night of surgery. Well I wish you the best!!!!!

The morphine will help Actually, thats my standard advice to pre-ops. Do -not- be afraid of asking for help with the pain at the hospital. Medicine has made huge strides with pain management in the past ten years..so if you are in pain..ask them for drugs. You will heal better in the long run. Me? I woke up with the morphine and stabbed the button like a video game for the first 24 hours.. so I was in -zero- pain the whole time I was in the hospital.

I just had mine Wednesday. I felt better immediately after surgery than I did the next day... the anesthesia lingers a bit.
