  1. Do any of you know if I can do a detox to get weed out of my system? I am not a smoker but tried it after surgery to help with nausea, I asked my surgeon in Mexico but he had no idea what that was. I have an upcoming drug test for a job and need one. Have any of you tried any?
  2. I am 5 weeks out now almost 6 and tried some cheese sticks on week 4 they were ok but latley im am struggling with gas bad to the point where I have to stick my finger down my throat to burp and often throw up, I ate a peice of rotesseri chicken and threw up. Any tips?? I am so stick of liquids and even today was so nauasted that I couldnt drink my premixed Protein drink. I know Im not getting enough protien or Water , instead of water what did yall drink? I have switched back and fourth between protonix prilosec and zantac protonix seems to be best.

  4. I will say this RJ I learn more from here then actual doctors. I work with the arrogant assholes everyday. I dont give a dam if they have an MD title unless they have walked in your shoes they have no idea. I dare someone to say that to me he would of had to call security he has no idea how hard this is. We are all here for you and will get through this!

  16. Hi all, I had VGS Nov 13 in Mexico with Dr Rodriguez. Ive had some complications with my sleeve being to tight , Hospitalization from dehyration etc. I am finally back to work today i feel fine but am having problems with burping still and dont quite know the feeling of being full, Does anyone know how to describe what it feels like. I am on the first day of my 3rd week I am still doing liquids and some puree foods. I am not getting in a whole lot of Protein but cant stand the thought of ground up chicken. I decided to do one extra week on liquids since my stomach was so swollen, any recomendations on what to eat that pureed and half decent? Also what should I take for the burping? I switched to zantac seems to help a bit more then what I was sent home with. When should I start working out like walking on the treadmill? Any advice helps, Thanks

    Hiccups pre and post op

    im 3 weeks post op, I have hiccups somtimes and am told from my doc it may be from eating to fast was also told protonix works wonders. I was on prilosec and switched to zantac 150mg and find it to help more still taking lots of chewable gas ex. smaller bites maybe and slow your eating its all a learning process
  20. I had somthing similar, I was hospitalized for 2 days had my sleeve done in Mexico, Its pretty common be careful of the gatorade the sugar in it made me sick. Also start slow I tried egg drop Soup once relased and lots of rest with walking 20 min a day and im back at work this week be easy and my doctor recommended gavaston and protonix gavaston helped the swelling. I also slept with a heating pad on my stomach hope you are feeling better

    Feeling stuck

    I feel like I am in a stall, I am still stuck at 215 its been three weeks beginning this week, I decided to do an extra week of liquids because my stomach was so swollen. It is hard for me to get my protien or even 600-700 calories a day. My tummy is very upset today gassy, Maybe because I tried Beans last night but then decided to stay on liquids any advice? what else can I be eating to get it in? Ive been doing two Protein shakes a day worth 170 calories a pudding and some Soup, I am sipping all day just done feel hungry at all.

    Feeling stuck

    Thank you! what soft proteins did you use or drink babbs?
  23. I was sleeved by Doctor Rod on 11/13/14. Me and my mom stayed at star medica. He was a great surgeon the only thing that i will say that was tough was the languaue barrier. I had some severe swelling and complaications not because of the surgeon but because I was so swollen and was in the hospital. Dr Rodriguez called every day to check on me and wanted to speak with the Doctors here in the US. He gave us his Cell number and told us to call anytime if we needed anything our patient cooridnator jessica has been awesome too. I highly recoomend him its like devolping a life long friend ship, Im 3 weeks post op today and still call jessica or Dr Rod if we have questions, They are always so nice and polite
