  4. Does anyone else get pain around their sternum area after eating??? I am 6 weeks post op and certain foods make me double over in pain at the sternum area and I feel like my chest is being crushed !!!! Anyone else deal with this same type of pain ???? Seems I can really only tolerate liquids or cream soup without getting the pain .

    Pain at sternum

    Surgeon said my gallbladder is in good shape . He even put me on gallbladder meds for 3 months to prevent the development of gallstones .. I am suspicious it is either something else or maybe what it is I am eating . I don't know all I know is that it takes my breath away it hurts soooo bad.

    Protein Strugglers

    Your body can only process 30 grams of Protein at a time so you are wasting the other 22.

    Caffeine/Coffee

    I guess I probably should have mentioned that my tea is decaf. It's Bigelow brand that they sell at Walmart in the little boxes. I am extremely fond of the lemon/ginger and the mint. Mmmmmmm !!
  17. If I were in that situation, I wouldn't tell them . For me, I felt it best to only tell people who I knew we're gonna be supportive of me only!!! It made me feel better going into surgery that way and I am so glad I did
  18. It took about a week from my submission to blue cross blue shield to approval !!

    Caffeine/Coffee

    I was an avid coffee drinker prior to surgery..... Now I can't drink it. I drink hot tea instead. My surgeon said that coffee can irritate our pouches.
