Post surgury

Sep 03, 2009

I had RNY surgury on Tuesday 9/1.  Today is Friday morning. 

Surgury day was not too bad.   I woke up in pain but once I learned how to give myself pain meds and ask for it I got my pain under control.  I did manage to do 2 laps late evening.

Wed I felt better on lots of pain meds.  I got my 20 laps in throughout the day.  By early evening I realized I had probably over done it and slept well all night.  All that sleeping I didnt get any pain meds so I woke up Thursday feeling pain.  They took out my catheter which meant I had to get up and go to the bathroom. 

Thursday I felt worse than ever.  My mom who has had / observed surgury recovery said the third day is often bad.  Pain still remains but is more manageable.

Firday AM.  I really do not feel like doing anything.  Need to force my self to get some protien and take my vitamins.  Slept OK last night but feel pretty tired.
