Thank you for all of your suggestions. I think I will call.

No they didn't put me on anything for acid reflux.

I am 19 days post op and still on liquids, purees, and soft foods. I am not ever hungry and struggling to get in enough liquids and protein. Even when I have not had much, I have horrible acid reflux. I have never had this before but I go to bed with it, I get up with it. It makes me not want to eat even when I know I need to eat. Can someone please help me understand this mess? My post op Dr appt is Friday.

I am back to the living. I won't lie the first two days after surgery are rough especially if you are a Wimp like me. I am feeling so much better today and very thankful for that. It was rough in the hospital but it didn't make me want to stay another night. I was sleeved on Thursday June 6 and was out on June 7 by 3pm. I didn't do anything but walk the halls and sleep when I got home. The next day was pretty bad and I had a lot of trapped gas but last night which was Saturday everything started gurgling and roaring and I finally was feeling better. I woke up 3 times in the night and had a worse headache than the pain of surgery. Whoo Hoo I am feeling better.

I am sitting here waiting in my gown. The lady before me, her family is not in the waiting area anymore, my husband said. They are probably in recovery so it won't be long they will come get me. I am so ready.

I am headed to the hospital and since yesterday I have trapped gas that is killing me. Has anyone ever had this?

I could have had mine in 2 weeks after meeting the surgeon but I needed to wait on my vacation so it was a month and 6 days.

Good luck guys!

Our day is almost here and I know you are as excited as I am. I thought it would take forever for JUNE 6th. I never thought I would make it through the 2 week pre-op diet and now I am all the way to the clear liquids. We have 2 days and then we will be in the hospital with a new journey ahead of us. A new LIFE. Maybe we can talk to each other about our pre-op, our surgery, things we have learned, things we are eating or drinking, and things we are worried about. We will be sleeve brothers and sisters for life!

Only 5 days left and I have been on my pre-op since may 19. The second week on shakes Is killing me. I am so ill feeling.

Who did your surgery?

I do not want anything to change when I get my sleeve. That is why I do not want to say anything at all. I have been waiting for this and would be devastated if I do joy have it when it is scheduled.

I have started my pre-op diet and been doing great. My surgery is scheduled for June 6 but I am feeling pain under my breast on the right side. I believe it is my gall bladder and I do not want it to interfere with my surgery. What can I do to ease the pain so it doesn't interfere. I am so ready for my surgery.
