It happened to me too, it will go away. The way I thought about it was try funneling Water into a small jug. Lol. Good luck! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Need help! I want to take a gasx chewable, but I am afraid of a reaction. Anyone have any advice? I'm on day 8 post op. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you @@Malin! Yes. A lot better. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Great to hear. I hope for your speedy recovery. We made some lentil Soup (blenderized and strained) and that is real good to replenish hemoglobin. I also made a juice with apple, orange, kale, carrots and beets. I plan to sip on that this afternoon. I got clearance from Dr before and I think you should too.

Omg I had the same exact thing! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App How do you feel now? I was sleeved on 12/22 and came home yesterday. My hemoglobin was real low. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

So I had my surgery on 12/22 and had a horrible night that night with sweats- it's ok because I was probably wheeling off the anesthesia. Next day, I go down to have my upper GI and feel real faint. I passed the upper GI but when I'm waiting in imaging to go back- I tell my husband to call the nurse because I was having lots of cold sweats and wasn't feeling good. Turns out they called a code rescue ( great team at south Miami hospital) and they rush me to CT to see if I might have a clot. Turns out no clot, thank God, but I did have a hematoma from my suture and it was bleeding. Turns out that my hemoglobin went all the way down to 7.3. I'm up to 7.9. Of course, I also get my monthly visitor making the situation a little more grave because I have more blood loss. Well, I was sent home yesterday 12/26 still very pale but trying my hardest to get better. Was wondering if anyone had the same or similar complications? Thank you all for contributions in advance.

PLEASE don't give up on this site..It has truly helped me with what I needed to help me pre and post. I look for the positive feedback, read ALOT of people before n after for encouragement and yes I have scrolled pass some posts that tend to degrade n move away from what is asked...because I'm not here for negative jabs (even if not intended) because this process is hard (in all phases) emotionally n physically n information is plentiful (good n bad)... I encourage you to still read post to see what can n can not help you in your journey..I wish you the best proud of you already.

Apparently, the information my surgeon and nutritionist provided me with is incorrect. Thanks again! I appreciate you reaching out. Sandy Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

What is a waist trainer? Sent from my XT1585 using the BariatricPal App Here in Miami, it's seems like there is a little Colombian store selling wait trainers in every corner. Why don't you google waist trainers, meanwhile I get you information on the one I had. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

When I gave birth to my 10lb son, as soon as I could I put on a waist trainer. I plan on doing the same things as fast as I could. It helped me with the sagging back then. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
