Omg I hope u feel better. Definitely see ur family doctor. Could u be dehydrated?

Oh that's good to know..I didn't know I still had anesthesia in me. That makes sense. I'm extremely tired. Today I woke up at 8 had half an Oz of lemonade and walked took my meds and went back to sleep until 1230:/

That's all awesome to hear...today is day 3 I'm still sore and in pain. The medicine they make us take is horrible!!! I've been extremely sleepy..is that normal.

My surgery was March 23rd. I'm being sent home today. I feel soreness and pain on my stomach. I had the sleeve. How long did this pain last 4 all of u?

Yes I sure do!! thanks for ur support !!!

@@CanyonBaby thanks for ur reply. Ur right things always happen for a reason. Update: my primary physician said everything is good to go and sometimes overweight ppl have high blood counts.

Okay I've been waiting to have my surgery since August. My surgery is next monday. Just had my preop on Friday. Well today my regular doctor calls me and says he needs to see me in regards to my lab work. Long story short I end up speaking to his nurse she says my white blood count was high. She aside if I wa sick and I said no just real bad allergies. I did tell her I was sick a month ago. She said usually high white blood count means my body is fighting an infection. Aww I'm so bummed I have to go get new lab work done today. I doubt anything will change since Friday. It really hard for me to find someone to watch my child while I have surgery and I actually found someone and everything was falling into place until today:( has this happened to anyone else?

Wow! Couldn't agree with @"tauruslady5" better!!! This site is for opinions and views!!! All these people attacking her for posting her opinion, need to stop acting like the POLICE!!!! IM ASSUMING EVERYONE THAT IS MAKING THESE COMMENTS ARE EITHER POLICE OR LAWYERS, SINCE YOUR "OPINION" IS TO INCARCERATE HER!! RELAX, PEOPLE ITS NOT THAT SERIOUS! I bet a few of you have asked questions on this forum that should have been for your doctor instead of here!

That's awesome and motivating to hear! I really dislike artificial sugar!!! Ive never had raw honey....I'm going to have to try that!!!

Awesome!!! I would love to read your report! I totally agree with everything your saying, that's why I'm concerned about consuming artificial sugars.

Perfect! Im scared of eating real sugar and not being able to loose all I can really loose. Which proteins did you find that didn't contain artificial sugar?

That's a really odd response. I was thinking of saying I went on Kaisers medifast program , which is all liquids for a certain amount of weeks!!!

haha...I didn't!!! HR did!!!

That's awesome advice!!! I need to print this out to motivate me every time my mind wonders!!! basic reason is for my health!!! funny thing is I never told my boss about the surgery he found out from HR.

whoo hoo that is awesome...your giving me some motivation!!!

thanks....there really is a lot of naysayers that don't have knowledge. It very irritating and upsetting at times. congrats on your new sleeve!!!!

Thank you that's a very good response

Hello, my surgery is next month! I was very excited until everyone close to me started discouraging me. Today my boss told me don't do it , u don't need it, ur gonna be sick all the time, just work out, change your life! I'm like hello don't you think I have tried that! But they don't understand....I'm 5'7 and weigh 260. Please help what should my response be...because now I'm getting discouraged!

The support group in ontario is really good

My doctor said it's not necessary for his sleeve patients

Hello, I need some help in figuring this out. ..Which is better for a sleeved person artificial sugars or real sugar? I'm noticing alot of items that are used are sugar free such as sugar free torani, yogurts, and crystal light. As far as I've been educated by doctors (not gastric drs) our body doesn't break down that sugar properly. I'm just really concerned and scared because a few weeks ago I was loading up on sugar free items, until the dr told me I was a pre diabetic. Once the health educator told me artificial sugars are bad...I stopped. Please help and let me know the reasons it's allowed for us! I'm scheduled for my sleeve March 23rd so I want to be really informed. Thanks!

@mcclorrie I thought post op was for after surgery?

@@LisaAlwaysSmiling do the protein shakes for breakfast and lunch and u will loose the weight! Your on track and doing good!!! I'm in kaiser ca with dr. Fedorka.

I'm March 23rd in CA
