I just had a TORe procedure done last Wednesday. My pouch was never quite small enough and of course, I struggled with being hungry. So 2 years out, and I had it done endoscopically. No pain. And things are definitely tighter!

My son’s name is Kevin as well. He was killed by someone who didn’t Slow Down or Move Over as is the law in MA. He was loading a disabled vehicle onto his flatbed tow truck and was struck and killed instantly by someone who didn’t. He was 22 and my baby. He would be 25 now.

Got rid of mine ( regrets since 2005) and had RNY the same day. Maybe you can get a revision? RNY June 11,2018

I am craving shrimp. I didn’t like shrimp much pre op. Crazy. Lol. Tiny canned shrimp goes really well right now. RNY June 11,2018

My band I had in 2005 came out at the same time as my RNY was done. Thank goodness. RNY June 11,2018

Every time I sat up on the edge of the bed I was like a baby being burped. Lol. Loud burps too.

No issues here. Yet, anyway. I can guzzle all fluids. I’m a little worried. Lol. RNY June 11

Run! Just got rid of mine. Had the nasty puke band for 13 years. If you are a food addict as most of us are, you will soon figure out that refined carbs go down really well and good protein ( meat, chicken) comes up and out really well. RNY with lap band removal June 11

Went to Walmart yesterday. Leaning on the cart the whole time - not from pain, but from weakness. Wore me out! RNY June 11

My belly is very bruised as well. 1st night post op while in the hospital, one of the incisions leaked a large amount of bloody drainage ( think bed change?). Definitely a hematoma in that spot. So now I believe that’s all healing- resulting in this beautiful multicolored abdomen. And it itches like crazy!!!! RNY was June 11.

I did get one shot of lovenox. I then proceeded (this may be tmi) to have quite the rectal bleed. I feel Ike it had something to do with the hefty dose of Cymbalta I take. 90 mg. I refused the second lovenox. I’m a nurse and I was already bleeding all over the place!
