JSCRIMPSHIRE

You are not going to die but you do sound dehydrated. You need to get to a hospital ASAP for some fluids!

I only have internal staples, internal stiches, and dermabond!!

This happened to me too. My nurse said that if my Protein Shake contained whey- which it did- that that was the culprit. Lots of people can't tolerate the whey. Try isopure from GNC. it is in a clear bottle and cones in tons of flavors. It is DO much better!

I was sleeves on 7/1 at 730 am and got to go home on 7/2 around 11 am. I had a lot of pain the first week home. The second week it started letting up and now I am virtually pain free. I am actually going to get a pedicure today in celebration of my 23 pound loss! I posted his in another tread but want to get other 7/1 opinions. My dr put dermabond on my incisions and it is beginning to slough off. One of my incisions- jut today- is looking like it is not closed underneath. It's not bleeding or anything it just looks bad. Anyone else have this issue??

The dermabond is not off yet. It is just starting to pull away.

Thanks.... I have an appointment on Monday anyway- for my two week post op.

My Dr used dermabond on my incisions. I am 12 days post op and the dermabond seems to be starting to slough off. My concern is that one of my incisions does not look closed and is the one coming off the most. Anyone else have this problem? What did you do?

They want my soft food to be very soft.... Mushy...Tina, eggs etc were suggested. I am not drinking chicken!

Give me some ideas of what you ate during your soft food stage. I can start my soft foods on Saturday and can't wait!

Don, I didn't LOVE them before. I have just gotten to where they make me a little nauseated when I drink them now. I am having a hard time getting 60g of protein in- well I'm not getting it in. I hope it will get better when I get off of all liquids! Thanks K for the info. I will visit some health food stores today and see what I can find.

I really hate protein drinks. Really. Has anyone got any advise for me? I am 9 days post op and am having a hard time choking my protein down. Help!!!

I had my surgery July1 and am also having trouble with protein. Did you try the gladiator??
