One week post op

Mar 12, 2009

wow its been a whirlwind with my approval, scheduling, surgery and all.  Had lap RNY done on 3/5/09.  Everything went well.  Dr Eid, his associates and the hospital staff all told me how well i did.  I got to go home on 3/7/09.  I am feeling better every day.  Yesterday I was advanced to pureed foods and so far am tolerating them well.  Still having problems getting all of my liquids in.

My only issue (and it minor) is the gas pain, which started from post op.  The gas in the belly moving around up to my shoulders and down my back...oh will it ever go away.  It is getting better though but owie owie owie.  Have had a few minor waves of nausea, especially in the morning, but i am working with it.

Overall...I am doing much better than I ever thought!!!!!  Went grocery shopping for the first time today.  It was a strange feeling, not really finding anything appetizing, not craving anything.  WOW, my first wow moment i guess LOL
