Day 3 post op

Oct 08, 2009

Good morning!

I am up again super early in the morning. I think that I am awake cause my body wants fluids and food and I can feel gas bubbling around that needs/wants to come out.

Yesterday I started to have a really bad pain close to my drain but not by an incision. I was told that this is an internal stitch that is holding muscles together to stop any hernias. Given what it is doing Ill take the pain over the hernia but it is still uncomfortable. I will deal with it though.

I found out yesterday that my Vitamin D levels are low and that I need to get them up. Honestly I have no idea what it really means for my health to have low vitamin levels so I need to research this more to find out what health effects I am looking at.

I discovered bariatrictv.com yesterday and some other really good websites and had been watching videos. There is some really great information out there.

I hope to be going home today, I am not sure what time but I really wanna get home. I miss my family. Even though the hospital has been great and has helped me so much, I need to be self sufficient and get back to some kind of normalcy.

I hope that all of my friends who recently had surgery are doing well!
