  1. Long story short I was having such bad gas pain that I couldnt breath. Went to the er and bought myself an overnight. So frustrated I dont know what I did wrong. I was told that they see a spot on my catscan that they want to look at. So antibiotics and a dye test in the morning. Kinda nervous because I never have a fever and today I did. I keep thinking I made a mistake and what if this is some kind of infection and itt doesn't end well? Anyone else have a similar complication?
  2. Oh man this is terrible almost hard to breath. How long did it take to get rid of it?
  3. Anyone postop have any low left back pain? Im on day three and had my sleeve on tuesday and have a terrible cramping pain in my low left back. Im thinking gas?
  4. Anyome else have or having really bad low left back pain? Im sure its gas but not 100% I walked around costco today and feel like I ran a marathon. Gonna take a rest and see if it goes away. Ouuuuuchhhhh
  5. It was on the website under options I believe. Was pretty easy
  6. Last night I had to get out of bed and sleep sitting up on the couch due to some incredible low left back pain. Could this be gas? Today it's hard to breath and I feel like there is a big gas bubble in my upper belly area. Is this normal? I was sleeved on Tuesday and I have been walking for the most part since the surgery so I don't think that I am stiffening up. I also hear a lot of gurgling and churning....should I drink some more or does that mean that I'm full?
  7. How do you get the ticker on your profile? That little scale that shows your progress
  8. I was thinking tomato but wonder about the acidity
  9. Not sure why but I am sticking to just sugar free jello and some propel water. Is there anything else I should try? I am nervous about over doing it.
  10. Doing well thanks. Walking and sipping my 1 ounce an hour. Thanks
  11. Well surgery yesterday went well. Little sore but thats to be expected. Not as bad as I thought though. Walked a bit yesterday and did a few laps this morning around the unit. So far so good though.
  12. Thanks everyone I did well did some walking this morning. Feeling a little sore but nothing to cry about. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers
  13. So excited that today is the day, also a bit nervous but I'm completely confident in my surgeon and being in the medical field for about eighteen years now I tend to think I understand a bit more than the typical patient. Well wish me luck everyone. See you on the other side after I leave the old me behind.
  14. Mines on the 16th. Good luck
  15. Hi Patty where are you getting it done? I'm getting mine with Dr. Nazdam at St. Raphaels on April 14th

    I know it's taboo but is it true that you get very sensitive with regards to alcohol? I'm not a huge drinker but every once in a great while I like a glass or three of some nice Tullamore Dew. Someone told me that now a shot would do me in. Any truths to this?
  19. Getting sleeved next week on the 16th and just wondered if anyone is close by.
  20. You could have friends on my fitness pal? How ?
  21. Nothing terrible its not a liquid diet. I usually have a shake in the morning and one for lunch and I've been eating 2oz. Tuna with 1oz. Light mayo on a slice of toasted rye with 2 cups steamed broccoli or carrots with a cup of strawberries for desert. If I get real hungry during the day I have a Greek yogurt 0% of course. Maybe I'm just getting anxious and impatient.
