Oh I am sorry you are having problems with pain. Are you taking your pain meds routinely? If not, this will stabilize it so you don't have to play catch up to get it down. Sorry it's the nurse mind in me lol! How are you doing with fluids, any nausea! Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

I had my Pre-op class today, start 2 wk liquid diet on 8/29, then surgery 9/12! I am really excited, not as nervous, but worried I will get too grouchy with my Pre-op liquid diet lol! I have even asked to have these 2 weeks off work to concentrate on my diet without the stress of work. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

Trust me, being the RN that I am, follow your surgeons advice. You really don't want to get pneumonia by reflux/vomiting that enters the lungs. It does not take much and have seen many people require longer hospitalizations because this happened and some even die. So be smart and trust your medical team, they did not get their licenses in a cracker jack box, they worked hard to heal others and have a lot of responsibility for every patient they take care of. So show some respect for the medical field, they can save you or a loved ones life! Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app
