  5. Sannah, Hi there... Well your body wants to get 100% healthy doesn't it it's taking care of everything right now so you can recover and be healthy and happy from here forward. Now about those stones.... Grrrrrr.... Painful lil buggers.... Get them zapped/broke apart into tiny fragments while you are in the hospital... Then once they are broke up tiny into particles your iv lines will push thru lots of good fluids to push them out! Ask them to do this while you are there... Before your gallbladder removal or under the same anesthesia they can shock wave them and get that gallbladder as well. Oh it would be so good if this could be arranged as I know you want to minimize your hospital stays. Request a consult with a urologist/nephrologist and general surgeon. I bet they can master up a good plan for you. All the iv fluids are really going to help your kidneys. I'm keeping you in my prayers! After this you are going to be fabulous! Just you wait and see xoxo!!
  6. Codiene/opiate based pain relievers numb the bladder. They are usually discontinued and the person will see improvement within a few days. I hope this is the case with you. Read the pamphlet for all medications you are on... If it says not for people with kidney problems or difficulty urinating then that medicine is most likely your culprit. You could call your pharmacist as well. They are well educated on side effects.
  7. We definitely are able to decipher flavors now. It can be wonderful with great food but if you happen to get something greasy or ick then you will know it. Food is important now. I want healthy tasty and power packed nutrients! I can't afford to just have something just to feed myself like before. It's fun to be healthy
  8. You are in our thoughts and hearts! Stay strong sweetheart!
  9. You can do it! It's hard pre op to stay on the diet program. After surgery you will have your sleeve to guide you and help you. It's like night and day! Congrats on making this decision to get your life back!!! It's amazing!!! <3
