  6. And by the way, I had gout too!!!!! That was worse than surgery, lol. Won't miss gout, already off my gout meds
  7. My dr. Told me I could smoke pot about 4 weeks after surgery. Said I would not be at anymore risk. Of negative effects than someone who's never had the surgery, pot is only toxic to your lungs when smoked. The morphine, Percocet, and even acetometiphen you've taking are more toxic to your organs than pot. I've resumed pot. I am not a doctor or recommend any one else smoke the herb .
  8. You have to get most other surgeries. But yes, when they remove your gall bladder it always works. Lol
  9. I think they want to make sure it's a sound investment from their standpoint, it costs like $40,000. They want to make sure you have a good chance at success. When successful? They are saving $100,000's down the road from quadruple bypass, diabetic amputation, and stroke treatments, not to mention the cost of medications, etc. yep, they're for-profit, not kindness.
  10. Walking really helped get the gas out for me
  11. I am 1 week post op down 20 pounds. I was afraid of food for this week and especially bacon! Being the cook for the family, I finally made and egg bake for dinner and didn't even chew and spit out a morsel! Lol. Nope. just smelled and walked away. Now I now I am over food. No need to fear. Haha

  13. Yeah Pittguy. Had surgery on Tuesday and feeling very well. The whole staff was awesome. If you have any ?'s, please don't hesitate to ask.
  14. 2 weeks? 3 weeks? 4 weeks? Just curious. I am down 25 pounds since the beginning of liquid diet June 9.
  15. Surgery was Tuesday. Feeling good! Walked 20 minutes for breakfast. Down to 285. Was 297 on Tuesday. Lots of walking has helped with the gas. I have been religious in my regiment. Staying hydrated. Jello and Popsicles. My pouch had received everything well.
