  1. Talked to dr and thinks I'm having a reaction to blood transfusion. Off to ER. Ughh
  2. Ok new question.... Do all of you get cramping before diarrhea? Don't think it's my sleeve but my intestines. My cramping is severe
  3. Dr called me back and believes it's lactose and intestinal cramps. Said it's normal to have my digestive tract confused! If it doesn't get better I'll see him tomorrow. Thanks all
  4. Ok thanks. Called dr and waiting for call back. I forgot to mention it is accompanied with loose stool. Sorry gross!
  5. Am 1 week post op and sometimes in the morning I get such horrible stomach cramps I see stars and sweat! It has happened in my past with milk first thing but this happened yesterday morning with lortab and again this morning with my opened cymbalta capsule with 1 oz of atkins chocolate protein. Please help?
  6. Wow! I am on clear liquids for 2weeks post op, then 2 weeks on full liquids.
  7. I am not hungry but food looks and smells good. I still have a ton of gas so I am full. Can't wait for guacamole with a spoon!
  8. Hang in there! I was sleeves on the 10th and today having a Lot of stomach cramping. I m very emotional day.

  10. I take cymbalta and I am 5 days post op and notice nothing bit when u start you will have all sorts of changes with ur stomach
  11. I can so relate to this thread! While I was in the hospital my family was visiting and kept talking about where to go have lunch... Really??????I just had surgery the day before and my sister said " u are going to have to get over it". You choose this!". It's amazing how our friends and family really dont want us to look better than them. Is it a competition? I didn't think it was! Don't we all want to be healthy and fit? My husband has been so great and other than God he and my children are the only ones that matter! Can't worry about the haters! Keep moving forward sleevers!
  12. You will be the skinny funny girl!
  13. Omg that is horrible!!!! Wow! I font think that is a friend!
  14. I understand! I had surgery onTuesday and had bleeding issues. I am having real regrets, fighting thru it. No nausea but stomach pain and weakness is rough! Hard to move and walk! I am trying to walk but it hurts so badly I have to hold my stomach. I am taking lortab and it tastes worse than jäger!!! I am really surprised at how long it is taking to feel better! Proves everyone is different. Giving birth twice and a breast reduction is a piece of cake compared to this procedure. Keep hoping it will be worth it. Luckily my husband is still helpful and supportive! Good Luck everyone!
  15. It's difficult for me. I worry about vomiting. Each day I try to do s little more
