    Omg I Am Itching

    I itched like crazy also, but my incisions had gotten really red and were HOT to the touch, but this was a few days after my surgery. Had to go back in to dr and he said i was allergic to the glue they used to close my incisions..So he had to remove the clue and put me on a oral steroid to stop the reaction....it was aweful...

I was shocked b/c I didn't even know he had stuck the needle in. I mean i felt NOTHING>>>>no pinch, no sting, nothing....yea me...and he put in 3/12 cc's, sure hope i feel something...if not i go back in a month for more...the worst part is now i'm back on liquids for 2 days..that sucks.....

    Post Op And Hungry

    I so feel your pain...yesterday was 4 weeks post op and i felt and still feel the same way....HUNGRY...I go for my 1st fill on Wednesday and I pray that I feel some kind of restriction...i wasn't suppose to start mushies until day 14 but when i went to my post op apt on day 12 i asked my Dr could i move on to mushies and he said yes...I was sooooo happy to eat those eggs and fish, that was the best damn egg I had ever eaten..Hang in there and try to stay away from the ice cream...
