  1. I had surgery 17th and my right side is killing when I stand up or sit on toilet. I can barely wipe myself when I pee. Sorry TMI. What can this be? My incisions all look okay. Once I walk around a bit it's okay. And sitting on recliner is fine.
  2. Mine was a week before surgery. Ekg, blood work and met with anesthesiologist!
  3. Good luck. I wasn't nervous. Anesthesiologist gave something to take the edge off and then I was on OR table with mask on my face. OUT! You'll be fine.
  4. They gave me lydacaine in hospital in two of my sites. He said sometimes there will be issues with nerve endings. I have one now that kills. But it also may be abdominal muscle they had to jam through. So rough to get up but I push myself because I know I have to walk. I'm day 5 post op.
  5. Good luck to all that had surgery and waiting for surgery. It's so hard to get on here and post. I'm so tired but sipping like crazy. Sore too.
  6. Heading home today. Sore but happy to get home to see my kids.
  7. I made it too. I come home tomorrow. Yippee.
  8. On my way! Roads are icy! Grrr!
  9. Heading to bed! It's my turn bright and early. Let you know when I can how I did. Good luck to my surgery buddies tomorrow. We can do this.
  10. Try shutting down and restarting. Otherwise I delete app and reinstall. So frustrating.
  11. Welcome! We are having surgery on the same day. Good luck and feel free to in box me if you want to chat.
  12. My doctor required one month on sleep apnea machine preop before getting a surgery date. I tested positive for sleep apnea and let me tell you I feel so much better in the morning after wearing it all night. They require you to bring mask on day of surgery.
  13. http://www.procarenow.com/Chewable-One-A-Day-Bariatric-Multi-Vitamin--30-ct_p_10002.html One a day chewable bariatric vitamin. Only 10 bucks. Just need to add calcium supplement too.
  14. http://www.procarenow.com/Chewable-One-A-Day-Bariatric-Multi-Vitamin--30-ct_p_10002.html These are a chewable one a day. Only need to add calcium and done for the day. 10 bucks a bottle for a month.
  15. My nutritionist said the iron is a little higher in these than others. It may cause some constipation. She said I could take it with a calcium supplement. If I get constipated, we will cross that bridge when we come to it.
  16. Feel better simplysouthern. Hope you get better and out soon.
  17. Thanks! I hope your doing okay and quick recovery to you.
  18. Nope! December 17th. 7:30 am.
