Anyone suffering from VERY dry chapped skin on & arounf the lips after surgery?
A. Stoot replied to redlp's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Oh yes, right after surgery Sept. 18 till this day, my lips are very dry and was so chapped at the hospital my lips were bleeding. Not sure if it was from hydration, or the boogie they inserted for the sleeve measurement. But I have been nursing them by slightly brushing and adding lip cream -

A. Stoot replied to A. Stoot's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Thanks, back pain was not on the list of symptoms to be on watch for, I will call my Dr. office -
@aloudwisper,sounds like you are healing very well, me I am struggling a bit with pain and especially back pain
-
Oh wow that's good, right now I am not hungry and food doesn't faze me. Today is my daughter 21 birthday and my boyfriend got lasagna, bread sticks, cheese cake and drinks for her and my family today. The smell of the food made me sick lol ????

According to my Dr, he doesn't put his band to sleeve patients on protein until 2 weeks post op
-
I haven't tried yet, no protein until after 2 weeks post op
-
Oh yes I do know about that, I needed help going to the bathroom also
-
Wow ok, I am on all clear liquids for 2 weeks. But doing great, except for the back pains.
-
I am doing great, walking is a challenge with the pain, but i refuse to be a bed person, it hurts the body. That hospital stay had me feeling like I slept to much, constant back pains, sleeping pattern is off, but doing well...so far so good.
-
I had an extended stay at the hospital, but i am home now, trying to walk, walk, walk ????

Am I the only revision...No Pre-Op Diet

Would like some feed back...am I the only revision from band to sleeve who's Dr doesn't require a liquid diet pre-op? -
Tahnks, ya i am thinking the same, I guess I am afraid of my blood pressure before surgery, good advice and yes I think I better take care of myself before and after surgery☺

Anyone have a very stressful job and if so, did you take a few days off or day before surgery to prepare and relax? I was not planning on taking off work no more than needed and only planned the day of surgery and my recovery time. Anyone dealt with work related stress during the process before, during and after surgery, if so how did you deal with it?

Am I the only revision...No Pre-Op Diet
A. Stoot replied to A. Stoot's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
Thanks mrslb5, I was wondering because there are a lot of revision patients I have been reading require 2 week liquid diet pre-op. I guess it depends on the situation of the revision and the patient. -
So after waiting I got my surgery scheduled for September 18, I was approved for both the removal of the band and the sleeve to be done at the same time. I am excited and nervous but looking forward to a healthier me.

Oh sorry... no my Dr office only requires liquids 1 day before surgery. I have an appointment on the 15th with my surgeon and surgery on the 18th. Every Dr is different that's for sure because a lot of members on this forum had to do liquids 2 weeks prior to surgery
-
Yes all my preops were completed in July

Thanks Miss Mac
