  11. I was sleeved this past Thursday, so today I am 4 days out. I am still having a lot of trouble swallowing. Feels like a golf ball every time. Also, they gave me a suppository in the hospital bc I was in SO much pain from gas. So now I have (sorry TMI) liquid diarrhea. Did any of you have any of these issues? I am worried about dehydration. I am on full liquids, so I'm trying to drink skim milk along with water and some zero calorie electrolyte drinks like Powerade Zero and Gatorade. Haven't attempted a protein shake yet.
  12. I'm also in Columbus and working with Fresh Start. Surgery is scheduled for 4/4. I am getting absolutely NO support from my husband. Not only is he not going to be present during my surgery, he wont even take the two days off after my surgery to help me care for our 1 year old son. I would really love to meet with a group to exchange meal ideas, triumphs, troubles, and even clothes! Good days for me are Monday, Friday, & Saturday. Let me know if/when/where you decide to get together.
