  1. FAWife, that's fantastic!! Happy for you ))
  2. Wow, that is fantastic you were able to get this done! I too am curious how much you paid and your Dr.'s name and state Sorry if you told us already. My sleeve surgery impacted my short term memory!
  3. Congrats that is wonderful!
  4. My opinion is you go to the ER immediately and have a barium swallow test and CT scan. It's also imperative you get some iv fluids. It's been 3 days that's not good at all. I'm not suggesting it is something serious but your symptoms need investigation at this point. Better to be proactive after a major surgery. Your in my prayers!
  5. Is shingles contagious? I always thought it was not but a friend of mine has taken off work because she believes she is contagious. Any thoughts?
  6. You can drink it for an upset stomache at 7 months out. Of course everyone has a different view on it. I've done it when I've been sick and unable to stop the naseau. I still have tremendous restriction. That's my personal experience. I believe the choice is yours
  7. Doxie- it will start moving again Just keep on keeping on!!!
  8. Thanks for the link!!! That's really good information.
  9. Hey I looked up my approved meds list from my Dr. You can take dimetapp, robitussin, or delsym I prefer Delsym it works for 12 hours and doesn't burn going down its a smooth liquid. Just nothing with aspirin or NSAID like Motrin, advil, pamprin...those are a no no
  10. Okay you New Orleans people we want to come party on Bourbon street lol I think that's the street Anyways can we all crash at ya'lls houses
  11. Hi What amount of melatonin do we take? Is it a smaller amount for us sleevers? I'm desperate for some sleep too lol
  12. I have had 7 surgeries with my cpap...they are always prepared...try not to worry...they see it all the time.. you're going to be fine
  13. I ate a lot of Greek yogurt ...and mashed black beans with salsa and dollop of sour cream.. refried beans...oatmeal..and the things you have mentioned. I also ate broccoli cheese soup and tomato soup but I know your on soft foods so u may be tired of that..
  14. Yes, they are frozen meals.
  15. Keeping you in my prayers!!!! I'm so sorry you are hurting I pray you start to heal and feel better quickly.
  16. The surgery definitely changed my sleep clock...I stay up late and wake earlier than I wished!! Lots of nights I just have insomnia. It is very strange!
  17. Really??? Okay, I will do that! Thanks
  18. Could be a nerve that is bothered from the surgery and when your stomach expands it presses on it. Burning sensations are associated with nerve pain.
  19. Hehe you won't blow a stitch Oh gosh you got me having the giggles now. I'm sleep deprived lol
  20. Since you are so early out still monitor your amounts..Make sure your only doing an ounce every 15 minutes. Since your coming and going, use a medicine cup that measures an ounce and check the clock I really think your fine but its good to be safe
  21. You know what's right for you! I wish I had this surgery sooner...I missed out on life and not only that but I damaged my body being over weight for so long. Grab this opportunity and live your life free of obesity and everything it steals from us.
  22. Ahhhh I just saw your on full liquids... But still I don't think its possible for you too consume too much this early out.
