surgery on 4-11-12 and stil have gas walking helps and sometimes i have a chewable gasx. had one today

I started today with pain in my right side where the doctor has made an insicion seeing him on monday pain killer is not really working

I missed counted and tried my pureed stage too early. I hope I did not cause any problems. TMI I have not had a bowel movement since I did that. I still have trouble sleeping and some pain in the from and back in the same section. I am glad I did this but did not prepared for the problems that have happen. Hoping that I did not cause aproblem with my sleeve. back to the liquid that one day of pureed may have caused a problem OMG. I am scared and alone.

Yes it is normal. I was the same way. I was told that the mind has to get to the same page as your stomach. I sipped alot of Water and Lemon crstal light. It will take a while for you stomach to allow other items. Just try to have something every hour. Tea, broth, Water, crystal light try Jello too. Good luck

I developed a bad UTI, Kidney infection that was also showing up in my blood. I am on pain killers now. It does not help that I get a coughing at and my stomach muscle aches badly.

I had my sleeve on 4/11/12 and was dischagered from hospital on 4/15/12 and return back on 4/17/12. And was back in the hospital for another week but I am in alot of pain and not sure on how to ease the pain. I was told it is muscle pain and every time I need to cough I fall asleep from the pain. How much longer to deal with pain? Helppppppp

Hey bronx new yorkers I have joined the sleeved club. I was sleeved on 4/11/12 and everything went great according to doctors. I wanted to get out the bed about 3pm and want to drink water but had to wait that was Thursday in the am. Now Thursday afternoon I made a bad turn and felted really sick and could not drink anything I could not even lay down. So I got worried and the doctors did too. I was kept longer and sent for a CT and 2 nebs. I was off the pain killer early because I was so ichy. Turns out that I had a running nose and as it feel to the back of my throat it may it hard for me to cough and it also caused a painful coughing attack. I was just taking tylenol the first night and had a hard time. As for today I am drinking 4 - 6 oz of clear and i crushed the vicodin because of the painful coughing. My husband brought me some sugar free cough drops that is also helpful for the cough. Finally I don't regret it I am doing good. TMI sorry I past gas like crazy and finally went poop. lol calling doctor's office for my after surgery appts.

Good luck to me and all my fellow sleevers. My god bless you all. My new birth date will be 4/11/12

Amen god, it is my turn today please watch over me and bless me with the success. I will come out better than ever. Amen Amen amen!!!!

That right I want to be the Queen of the loser bench. Good luck to I post a paryer for everyone.

Once again I share this ith everyone who is being sleeved. I share tis ith everyone

you are not alone I am doing the same and it seem to not be kicking in. And my surgery is at 8 pm tom. Good luck look for my posting on a prayer the doctors

Tomorrow is my turn! I am so excited to know that it will be happen tom. I am looking forward to being ready for my healing to be managable to deal with our memorial day get together. I will be pray for my doctor and for myself for a speedy recover. Good luck to everyone. Yeah!!!!!! Yes, god it is my turn. Sorry the excitment is just overwhelming and over flowing.

I really don't know know how much this will help, but stop talking about it for a while. Children are like sponages they obsorb everything good and bad. So start with telling her/him that you hear what they are telling you and you understand what they are telling you. Then tell her that you love her. Once she thinks you are not doing this any more she will stop worrying about you changing. Just like on the biggest loser this year is no excuses, because you are using her as your excuse to postpone this. I am only talking from experience my grandchildren did not want me to change. I asked everyone not to talk about it anymore and I told a little white lie when the time came. Everyone told the kids that I am going in for a sleep study and they we tell them that I had a bad stomach ache to cover for the longer hospital stay. I raise my grandkids so yes I Understand how easy it is to put this to the side, but if you are doing this for yourself why add more stress to yourself. You need to tell your children that this is a thought and continue your plan without involving your children in every step. Do your diet, change your habits and everyone else. They will never know the differents. This is just advice you take what you want and reject the rest if you wish. Good luck I go tom 4/11/12 :}

He guys that so great I have been on a high protien diet until too days before the surgery and then it is a clear liquid diet and this drink that cleans you out the day before. Any of you guys have the same diet for their doctor.

Good Luck me too. What hospital?

Don't think about just roll with the punches because the second guessing can over whelm you.No matter what delay I had I push thru it kicking and fighting and a lot of crying to but I finally arrived.You will too. I go in April 11th.

Yes god its my turn and if someone trys to take this from me I am going to hurt them! That right I jump, I hopped, I ran, I even begged for this and finally I have all my "T" crossed and my "i" dotted. My ducks in a roll. What ever people can say I did it and I never give up. I thought I was going to have to change my name to neverforme! But GOD you made it possible for me. I to thank everyone for there kind words when I would hit the wall hard and allowing me to vent. I want to thank GOD for the courage you have given me to ensure that I don't have second thoughts about doing this with all my medical problems. I went in today for my pre-op testing and found out what the problem was for the last cancellation and had it remove from my medical records. The doctor said I thought you were not going to do this because you were so heart broken. I told him about the many friends I found on this site and there words would not let me quit. I am on cloud nine and see such a bright future in front of me. I am finallying do me so that I can do my family. I started to look at the pictures of the wedding dress I want to renew my vows at a church cermony because I got married at city hall. I will no longer be in pain. I will no longer be breaking chairs when I sit in them. Look out world here I finally come!!!!! April 11th Bye Bye fat me and all the stupid saying like she has such a pretty face.!!!! Thanks everyone for allowing me to cry, vent, and laugh. Well all are going to get there because God said so!!!!!!!

Yes I did the same after I was cancelled on feb. 6th but I am having the surgery now in april 11th and in the middle of March I finally woke up and I am back to healthy eating. I did because I was down about the cancelation after waiting so long since 2010. But it will happen soon.Good luck it will get better you will bounce back

Well the only thing I can say is, Who are you doing this for? You are working out the pro and con through your dreams! Take a Picture of the look you want and replace the face with yours and Put it on you door and write yourself a letter every nite about the positive things that will be different for you when you lose the weight. My date is April 11th and no cold feet here and a high risk person because of medical reasons.You will do fine and the dreams turn from bad to good. I now dream about me in a two piece bathing suit on the beach in rio.

Oh yeah, I got my date April 11,2012 Finally I can stop wondering when will this happen. Happy because I am going to lose my health coverage again. Funny but I will get to enjoy easter, This year we decided to go to church and then the Zoo. I will be able to walk with only having pain in my feet. I will enjoy my grandkids.
