VSG Revision- 2 weeks postop

Aug 02, 2016

I made it through surgery at Swedish in Seattle. My doctor is pregnant so her partner actually did the surgery. I like Dr. Sung, he is very nice. I did have some issues while in the hospital. Four failed IVs, talk about no fun.

I'm home now and I've had my fill of Sugar-free Jell-O, sugar-free pudding, sure free Crystal light and Mio, sugar free shakes, broth.

I want to eat!!!!!!

I've had a few things that were "liquids" in the last two days,  but they really had way too much sugar or fat. Like a milkshake and a watered down lemonaide. I think the excessive sugar and fat is what is causing the diarrhea. I'm talking explosive!!  I'm anxious for my follow up appointment tomorrow in Seattle. I know I'm down 14 pounds in the last two weeks. I think that's not too shabby. I know I also have not been getting in enough water but I am making an attempt to try to stay up on that. 

Other than that I'm feeling pretty good. Just having trouble sleeping on my right side and developed an allergy to the glue around my incisions. They're welted and itchy. But this'll be over soon enough.
