  3. Oh boy I hope it doesn't stay this way. Even the plain water taste sweet.
  4. Why is everything I'm tasting so sweet? Has my taste buds changed. They brought me jello it's so sweet and now the chicken broth is sweet as well ugh and leaves a nasty taste in my mouth. Did anyone feel this way right after surgery?

  6. Hey I'm in Fort Lauderdale, my surgery was yesterday with Dr. Del Cruz at The University of Miami Hospital.
  7. I'm feeling ok just lower stomach pain. I've been walking and should get released tomorrow. I taste some jello but it's super sweet so I don't want it. I heard that my taste buds would change I guess they have. Lol
  8. @ you will do great. They found problems with me. They said when they went in they saw that my intestines were in the wrong place and kinda twisted plus my colon was floppy and shaped funny, which is why I'm always constipated. So they had to fix somethings up. They removed my herina and ire firmed the bypass as normal.
  9. Hey guys, my surgery went well. I woke up with a lot of abdominal pain but it's manageable now. I walked twice yesterday and trying to sip on water. Hopefully I feel better today. I don't like pain.
