    Not sleeping after surgery

    Did you use liquid tylenol or just the tablets?
  4. RE bladder and urine infection, it certainly doest sound like that. Ive had a few over the years, used to get them a lot but that was never the kind of pain. Does it hurt when you pee? Usually that is the main sign, well for me anyway. Know everyone is different. I would pee and it would be sore then when i was finished i would still have a sharp stinging pain continue. UUUggghhh. Flashbacks. Horrible! I have had consipation and what you describe does sound like that.
  5. Can you find another hospital with a bariatric department?I think i would have done exactly the same thing as you!

    I am not changing my mind

    Honestly, the pain was only bad for a day, and that was very hazy! Im 12 days out now and i can barely remember it. All i can think about now is how quickly my scale is moving down! Keep checkin in on this board every day and ask us any questions you have. That is what kept me going!

    How much water/liquid

    Thanks for suggestions everyone. I am going to look for some sugar free syrups today. Choice is soooo limited here in UAE, i wish i could get some of the amazing products you can get in the states!
  8. There are no guidlines on any of my tubs and i am struggling to get a decent consistency. Also should i use all milk or must i use half milk/half Water? Water on its owm is not doing it for me! Thanks as always

    Dr Kelly

    I completely agree with what Kelly has just said. You are entitled to your opinion, however, there is certain ways to express it on a public forum. Like Kelly, i do question the validity of what you have said and have a feeling alex will be involved soon. There are a few things you mentioned that completely conflict what i have just been through. I am also deeply offended by the "typical mexican" comment as well. It is just totally bad taste. I wonder why you went to Mexico at all if this is how you regard the people there? As for calling people names "ishy trish"?? Again, bad taste. I would suggest you grow up a bit and like an adult, if you have a problem with something, deal with it in a mature fashion.

    How much water/liquid

    Thanks for that, im doing some experimenting in the kitcken at the min. I am trying a bullet today, yuck! I dont like it but im taking drinks every now and again as i need to get some decent Protein in!
  12. Before i go out and spend a load of money just wanted to know what your experience is with any available treatments? Thanks
  13. Beginning to feel that food no longer has a grip on me. Im not thinking about it all the time.

  14. Wow, you look amazing! Huge well done! How did you lose so much so quickly? I have a wedding and 3 and a half months so that is a bit of a target for me, would love to lose as much as you in that time.
  15. oh god these adverts on tv. everything looks soooooo good. i think im hungry but know im not.

    BM

    Hi everyone,I woke up a few times during the night with these strange pains. the only way i can describe is like a large snake swishing around inside me. because I've not been having any pain I'm a bit worried. My temp is normal and everything else is fine. Do you think its maybe a bm? I've not had one for 5 days, is this what your first one felt like? Thanks as always!

    Leak Test Post-Surgery

    Yes that conflicts with what have read too. I know having the leak test put my mnd at ease. actually seeing that your stomach was not leaking on a Screen was a huge relief and I was able to relax a bit. If I didn't have one I think I would be a nervous mess! Let's hear what the more experienced folk have to say but if it was me, I would be looking elsewhere. X
  19. watching really funny films is not good for a freshly cut abdomen!

    Thank you

    Well it is almost time for me to leave for the airport. I just wanted to say a huge thanks to all the members who have shared their experience, advice and support through this site. I know if i had not found this site to support my own research i would never have taken the plunge and booked my surgery. A calm has come over me and i feel pretty confident that something/someone is watching over me guiding me in the right direction. I am doing this alone so please keep me in your thoughts and prayers for my surgery on Sunday. xxx Groove
