I love this knowledge, it does make you crazy...hehe I’m like wait these people on my 600lbs life are losing 50 pounds in a month .. I’m losing barely 25 ... I totally understand now..

Prayers up!!!

Made more sense for us to send hubby in for the big V. Now, he says if I get pregnant... "Lucy, you got some Splainin' to do!"

I'm 15 months post gastric sleeve. Before surgery, I had bad acid reflux. I've been on Protonix since surgery. Over the last several weeks, nausea, vomiting, can't eat solid food, pain, GERD is awful. Got dehydrated, hospital 4 days; endoscopy revealed no stricture, but erosions, scar tissue and bad GERD. Now I am not very pleased that I am most likely facing a revision to gastric bypass. I never knew that with GERD it might be better to have the bypass instead of the sleeve.

Put in some lounge pants or jammie bottoms, you probably,won't,be able to wear the gown because of wires and,IV s in your arms. That way you can wear their snappy gowns and walk around without somebody singing Moon over Miami when you walk by. PS best of,luck, hugs and prayers for you both!

Hi there @numinousvessel I had open surgery 5 weeks ago. Actually it was pretty ok. I spent a bit more time in hospital than my surgery buddies, 5 days, but the recovery was swift. I was up and walking the next day, and a bit more every day. Today my regimen is back to pre-surgery, I am back at work. One plus side - you don’t get the nasty gas pain I vividly remember from my gastric band laparoscopic surgery! Feel free to pm me for a chat, or ask here...

have you had a medical work up lately? I'd be concerned about things like diabetes if I was drinking a lot and still thirsty.
