Okay the doctor just came, I have a bloodclot on my surgery, I didn't get much details but they are concerned and they have contacted my surgeon so that he can check me out. This is what might be causing the pain. The other dumb dumb made me feel worse by giving me maalox because he thought it was acid. Gosh I wish I could see his aRse again. I think if I didn't say anything when he was trying to discharge me, I would of died at home. I'm so angry, I just hope this pain goes away, it feels like I'm being stabbed and someone is pulling my stomach out, plus the Constipation didn't make anything better, also I couldn't fart.

Hey guys I've been in the er for 12 hours, I'm getting admitted now. I had a catscan and abdominal xray done, not the barrium though. I don't know what's wrong, all I know is that I had to demand to see a bariatric doctor, the doctor before was going to discharge me in the same condition I arrived. I've been given maalox and something that numbed my stomach, then again, and then morphine. I haven't ate in days and I stopped drinking yesterday. I'll update, I feel like I'm going to die.

I haven't tried prune juice even though I wanted to. My plan says no juice whatsoever, I'm pretty sure olive oil and coconut oil and lemon juice are not on my plan either. However, I was so cramped up and lying on the floor for hours that I couldn't gather myself up to go to the store and get some. My mom has my son, and I was pretty much alone. The good news is that my concoction worked within minutes, I have gone 4 times already and my abdominal pain is slowly leaving and becoming tolerable. I still feel like there's some stuff up there in my tubes lol. I am drinking more fluids but Water is starting to taste weird and I'm over the crystal light. I went ahead and had some greek yogurt, like 1oz because I had gone too long without food and was getting real light headed. I just want my stomach to feel normal again, I needed relief and now I have bubble guts but I know there's more so I still feel yucky.

So far milk of magnesia didn't do anything for me, neither did gas-x. I called my docs office yesterday because I thought I was going to die. She asked me how long has it been since a bm and I told her 4 or 5 days. She told me to go to er, but I didn't because I hate the er. So now I created a concoction of olive oil, coconut oil, lemon juice, and more milk of magnesia. I had a bm finally, though very little its something. I haven't ate in two days because I don't want that feeling I had before. For the past two days I've had about 16 oz of Water each day. I am going to keep drinking my experiment and hope it passes. I am very prone to Constipation and it sucks. I also took a bunch of sleeping pills so that I could avoid being awake for the pain, I was knocked out for 16 hours. My next step is getting dulcolax to empty out my tubes because it feels like I'm just backed up and that's where the pain is coming in.

I am having bad trapped gas. Does milk of magnesia really work? I am dying.

Owww to all you who had surgery this week! Welcome to the other side! Come to the other thread by @@Beni named october surgery 2014 post op!

Idk but now everything is bothering me even Water, ugh I feel crazy inside. I'm going to act like I just woke up from surgery and not have anything for 24 hours.

@@layknee lolll I don't even want to be touched. Plus I aint got no ho*s lol. My sons father was expressing how he would be more than glad to get me off, but yuck forget him. I haven't done anything in like a month, and I won't go back to doing him.

@@layknee me too, I felt that way on day 5 and it comes and goes. I can totally see myself falling into depression over this. What are they going to do with you? Er visits suck so bad. I don't even feel that terrible until its time to eat, and go to sleep. I can't ever get comfortable and when I eat I feel crazy. I am happy about my weight loss though but I do wonder if I could of done this with the same diet minus the surgery.

@@superbariatricbabe thanks babe! Yeah its going to take a while, I'm scared. I didn't get that type of dumping, I wish I did, I got the type that gives you a stomach ache and nausea and sweating. I couldn't find a comfortable spot. The ish we gotta go through man lol.

@@superbariatricbabe no no no don't feel like that! We are all different and pain sucks! I think I just had my first case of dump lol. I had a boiled egg with mayo and I was feeling terrible and uncomfortable, its going away now but I had to really gather myself because I was having some thoughts that were bad. You're walking a lot! Child labor sucks so bad its like the worst pain in life and I had a c section too, my baby was 10lbs 22inches long. I hope you do get better within the week, as for me I'm going back to my liquid diet, I don't want to ever dump again.

@@superbariatricbabe geez, you had 2 weeks worth? I was only given 4 days worth. I'm not in pain though, I was for 3 days after I ran out but now its nothing. At my 1 week checkup I asked for more and was told no, to use tylenol. I do get the uncomfortable feeling while sleeping and at night time, its annoying but other than that I feel great. I hope you feel better and was it always bad or did it get worse as time went by? I don't want to be in pain next week. I think my pain tolerance is high because I compare everything to child birth lol, I've been doing a lot, I even picked up my 40lb baby just once because I did it on reflex. I'm walking miles a day, idk if its helping me heal and I'm also taking extra zinc. I hope you get your pain killers because all doctors are different and pain freaking sucks.

@@layknee I stocked up on cream Soups, they were a dollar at pathmark only to find out that they weren't on my plan, so I had to return them. I did boil chicken last night for 3 hours so that it could be extra juicy and then I blended it with a potato so that I could have it for lunch and dinner today. I also blended a few bananas and added GENEPRO to it. I made my goals yesterday and was happy lol, its a bit easier when the liquid diet ends. I can't use any of the aps you guys were mentioning because I still have a blackberry, I'm attached to it lol and haven't gotten a better phone in years. Maybe next year I'll take time to back up my photos and get a new one, but idk lol even my bestfriend said she was gonna get me one and I begged her not to because I really like the simplicity of the blackberry. How are you feeling today?

@@layknee yeah I kno, for my csection I had em in for like a week and they fell off, when I woke up from surgery I was like wtf when I saw them, I was like but why did they leave them like this, who knows why. All I know is that seeing them made me mess with it. I even put a bandage on it now so that I can let them be lol. How are you feeling now? On my first day of puree I made really bad decisions I didn't feel the full feeling and kept picking at things, because of the hunger and desperation, but now I'm back and I've been journaling what I'm eating and drinking and the calories and Protein and I'm feeling crazy full off 2oz now but not with liquids, I think that goes through me. I hope you feel better!

@@layknee lol I am not a picker well kinda, it depends on what type of scab lol, its 50/50 because this scab was just looking at me asking to be picked, I never dared to pick at my csection though lol. I noticed the glue was different when it dried like a rock lol but I needed something quick. They should have put stitches on mine sheesh, everything I've gotten lately, is just glued, even my c section was glued, and my son kicked it open when he was 1 week old, he was very tall and I always let him sleep on me. At least your strips prevent you from looking at the incision. Morphine, how I miss it, sorry about your bad cramps, but I bet the morphine handled that quick. I'm glad I didn't get anymore percocets at my post op appt, because I liked them way too much lol, I might have gotten addicted to them.

@@layknee damnnn that's crazy! I bet you feel refreshed and look it too, those iv's give glows lol. One of my incisions opened up and had weird pus coming out of it just a tiny bit though, but its my fault because I peeled it, then I squeezed it. I got crazy glue and sealed it back up. I hope it doesn't get infected.

@@layknee aww my twin, I hope you feel better , I feel so sad that they kept you but I'm very happy that they put you on the iv and you will be hydrated soon. Best wishes and get better! <3

@@walkin'onsunshine its okay, I'm glad you are doing well! Hopefully it gets better, I've been walking 3 miles a day since friday to relieve some of the pain. Whàt can yoù eat so far? We all have so many differrent plans.

I feel the pain now too, not bad at all but just uncomfortable, my pain meds ended yesterday morning and my son elbowed my incision a few times, he needed to sleep on me and I let him because he doesn't understand that he can't anymore and he was usto it before so I didn't want to take that away from him, also the glue fell off now my incisions are like raw. My post op is tomorrow and I'm going to ask for more or something lighter that will help because tylenol isn't doing anything for me. I felt a pull yesterday while getting up from bed and in the mornings I feel very sore, I was also very dizzy today like a floating feeling.

sugar free popsicles are my new fav, my god they taste like a full course meal. I think I was really just sick of those shakes. I wonder what else tastes good, I'm going to have to get a wls recipe book like @@layknee did.

@@amylynns yay welcome to the other side! Everyone thanks for the encouragement, I went out and got sf popsicles, my god they are soooooo good. I am going to try milk with chocolate Syrup and GENEPRO, I bought sf hot chocolate too, and cream of chicken tomorrow I will mix genepro with consomme my mom makes my son which is soo yummy. I was really breaking down but I'm back now! Gladiators don't quit! Now I need to watch these popsicles because I had 2 and I'm fillllled.

i found you guys again lol. i dont know but somewhere along the lines, i didnt see the post about this new thread.

@@stephh I had him on July 14th of last year! my nose got hugeeeer!

i am one week out and my nose did get smaller, i had my son last year and kept gaining after him so it kept growing, now its going back to normal.

i feel like crap today, im tired of liquids, i cant stand the Protein Shakes and i had a cracker that i chewed for 12 mins and a piece of cheese the size of my nail. i couldnt help myself like im really starving. i also think i stretched out my pouch because yesterday i drank like 8oz in 10 minutes, idk whats going on with me but i feel bad about the cheese and cracker, tomorrow is my post op appointment and i hope i can have puree because i can put my other protien in there, i havent made my goal with Protein in 3 days. sigh.
