I am 12 1/2 weeks out and I am down 70 pounds, but I have trouble with food.

I am having the same troubles. I went to the doc yesterday and my surgery date was June 12th, 2012. I was told to return to a clear liquid diet x2 weeks. If I am unable to eat I am getting yet another EDG & a feeding tube.

I was told by my doc that if the diet pop was flat, it would be ok "occasionally" I have been afraid to try though.

Unfortunately, any protein I eat/drink does not stay down so I am having trouble getting any protein.

I am light head/dizzy everytime I bend over. I have been dehydrated sinc surgery, I get IV fluids every week and I cannot sem to get in all thefluids I need. I am having trouble eating as well, I was weighed today and I am down 60 pounds now, and my surgery date was 6-12-12. I havehad 1 EDG and had no strictures so its just me lol

I am not workingvout at all, I have a bad back and theconly exercise I get is walking at work.

I had surgery 6-12-12 & I am down 60 pounds

I went back to work full time 10 days post- op, I was tired for the first 2 weeks, but it got better.

Congrats! I had only back pain too, but my back had been fused twice so mine wasnt from gas. I wish you only the best on your new life

So glad to hear they fixed you! I know the disapointment about being moved back on your diet, that happened to me too, but it is for the best, that is what I kept telling myself anyways lol again glad you are on the mend.

Sorry to hear that Pazzo. I wish I could take some of your hunger for you, as I have the oposite effect, I am never hungry and dont eat but a bite or two a day. Your doctors office cant help by setting up a payment option so that you can at least get an appointment to be seen?

I had surgery in Colorado.

How long ago did you have surgery? Sometimes your mind thinks your hungrey and your not. It gets better.
