  1. 1 years has passed since you registered at VerticalSleeveTalk! Happy 1st Anniversary Ambryant!

  2. I don't know about anyone else, but I have experience some things with the new me that I did not expect!!! I was never told that the high Protein diet will give you constipation:blushing: (TMI I know) which can lead to hemorrhoids:blushing: (which is an experience all in its self if you have never had them!), your feet loose weight which makes all of your shoes loose:thumbdown:, and your rings start to fall off:mad0:... Anyone else have any surprise outcomes??? But I wouldn't change it for the world!

    Burps after eating...

    Sorry, surgery was 7/20 not 8/20... mistyped...
  6. I was sleeved on August 20th and never had any digestive issues or excess gas. But now, after eating anything I get horrible gas that comes up... And i am not talking about a little bit of gas, I burp over 15 times in like 5 minutes... Anyone have this happen?? Did it go away with time?
  7. When should I seek medical attention for a fever 16 days post op? Any ideas? Thanks!

    What to tell your boss??

    Hello has any one heard of FMLA or STD? FMLA is the Family Medical Leave Act, look it up it is a federal law. As for STD it pays up to 60% of your salary if you choose to enroll in the benefit at work. Your boss does not need to know why, just that you are going to be out on medical leave. If they push or demand to know why, see a lawyer as that is a violation of your rights! Hope that helps.

    Home from surgery

    My recovery room experience was horrible because I had horrible pain, was very groggy and i freaked out because i did not know where i was at, why i was in pain, and why the people would not let me see my family. I have also never been through a surgery before so I was not sure what to expect so i think the whole experience took me off guard. But i am all better now.
