The surgeon said there is a big internal stitch there on the lwft side. I have it too so I asked. He has me taking aleve liquid gel open it on squeeze it into tiny bit of water twice a day. Helps a lot.

Oh wow. Sounds goods.

I will definately try that!

After wls its true about nsaids pain relievers but initially it helps with the swelling. I was given IV toradol in the hospital for a week.

I cannot stomach them at all. Basically I tolerate a very bland no taste diet right now. I did find beechnut stage 1 turkey baby food 1 ounce has 6gm protein which was pretty decent. I'm pretty swollen my surgery lasted 4 hours instead of 1 hour as usual.

Wow demerol? We aren't even stocking that it in our local bospitals anymore because it causes rebound pain and high rates of abuse. Use it sparingly or ask for lortab elixir.

I'm taking one aleve liquid gels which I cut open and squirt into water twice a day about 12 hours apart. My surgeon told me to take it routinely for the first 2 or 3 weeks. Reallly helps. Stronger than advil.

I see them at walmart and even big lots.

Glad to hear it!

I bought the isopure today omg I could not tolerate it.

Me too but my doctor is really calm and said as the internal swelling goes down I will be able to take in more. He said to focus on fluids first.

Just had my staples removed thank god. It didn't hurt and feels so much better now.

That is great news!

Great! Are you sleeved too?

I'm considering it now that I have confirmation of the internal damage by my new surgeon.

Uggh. Nausea is back again. My intake is so poor. Focusing on liquids first. I'm still pretty swollen at least my upper abdomen looks like it.

Me too! Bought something that said 52 grams of protein one ready to drink shake. It was the most barfilicious crap I have ever tasted.

This is the post that won't die. Well it had until the OP had to get another reply in. Must like drama. The last 5 posts prior were about poptarts.

I went to huntington beach high school. Surfers, hippies' kids, and the snotty harbor kids.

I'm in the OC. Land of the super skinny stepford wife.

Thought we moved on to talking about pop tarts?

Its considered normal to have a bowel movement at least once every 3 days. Its a myth you need to go everday.

Are you in southern california too?

You will feel so much better! Take care!

I am going to try to biotin.
