I occasionally have those too. I am 8 days out. I also had a total hysterectomy 6 mo. ago. I had the exact type of sudden pangs--I now know was my insides healing. I believe it is the nerves that are cut are mending. Those sharp pains from the Hyst. have gone, but I am getting a few from what I think might be the staple line. I am very in tune with my body and have had a great recovery thus far. I have done no lifting and have followd my diet to a t. No temp-- and was off pain meds while still in hospital. I hope you find comfort in this and as long as you are not running any fever, and they are not continous, I would not worry.--but that's me.

I have fuzzy teeth too!!!! What is up with that? Is it a calcium thing? Acid? Have to brush three times a day!!! 6days post op.

Yeaaaahhh!!!! You're done!!! Like a check ride, much worse in your head. :smile1: I leave tomorrow for surgery Thursday. Nervous, but confident everything is going to be ok.

Dr Aceves in Mexcali. UUgghh, I leave tomorrow--by myself!!! Surgery Nov. 3rd. I am excited about getting back to my old self. As long as I can get through without any complications. That is my only concern. I am pretty healthy other than sleep apnea. I have always have had weird sleep patterns, but have gotten worse with weight. Are you also around 5'6? I was sooo thin as a kid and all the way to my 30's. Essentially could eat anything i wanted. I never had to diet, and was so use to eating whatever then the metabolism went south. Needless to say, I have had no luck dieting. now my knees hurt so bad that running is out of the question. But as soon as this weight comes off, i am going to start again and work out with weights. I want to be toned---no---ripped!!! LOL

Hey!!!I am going by myself for the 3rd. Who is your Dr.? Are you flying into San Diego?

The enlarged-fatty liver. I believe alcohol can enlarge your liver, so I am laying off. High bmi people also have enlarged liver due to high percent of body fat. Since my bmi was low, I had no preop diet, but have weened myself off of diet cokes, coffee, and wine. All my vices. What size are you now? I am a 12. But I am most comfortable in a six. Most people don't think of me as fat, but I am not doing this for anyone but me and I am use to being thin. Let me add that I also have BAD sleep apnea. It has become awful lately. I am hoping a weight loss will help it. Are you self paying? And where are you looking at doing your surgery?

I soooo know what you are saying. I am just barely at 30bmi and have scheduled surgery on the 3rd of Nov. I am worried that I might fall below 30 BMI and disqualify. So, I have eaten like a trojan lately. Laid off the wine due to liver thing that every one talks about. I am struggling with the finality of this and mourning my social eating--already. I am 5'6 and close to 188lbs. But, I carry my weight well, although I hate the way I look. I have always been skinny, but have been losing this weight battle for years, gradually adding ten pounds every year. It is getting to a point where I do not want to see any of my old friends, the ones who knew the skinny me, because I know what they must be thinking. So, I am self paying in Mexico. Scared and excited.

Hi-- Your starting weight is very similar to mine. Do you mind if I ask how tall are you?

I am 30 bmi and heading to Aceves on Nov. 3rd.
