    toodlerue got a reaction from catwoman7 in Pre-Op Diet Adherence   
    Do you really think it’s a good idea to ask a bunch of strangers with no medical degree if it’s OK to go against your surgeon’s instructions? There’s a medical protocol for this surgery for a reason.

    Is there a liquid form of antibiotics? I am so sorry you are going through this. This surgery was much harder than I expected! I am day 14 and am finally feeling better. Best of luck to you ❤️

    toodlerue got a reaction from FluffyChix in Constipation Question   
    I take 400 mg of magnesium citrate 3 times a day & eat 4 prunes. My PCP put me on this after I told him I was taking 2 laxatives, 2 stool softeners, Miralax & 4 prunes a day. I have to set a reminder to take the magnesium citrate in the middle of the day. I still need to use an enema about once a week.

    toodlerue got a reaction from GreenTealael in Isagenix   
    I am currently taking 600mg of magnesium a day for Constipation. When I did Isagenix & I took the Natural Accelerator & Isaflush I never had any trouble pooping but now I do. I was thinking about trying the accelerator & flush again.
    Is there anyone in the same boat as me or someone who is currently using these Isa products?

    My daughter had that too! It’s an allergic reaction to the surgical tape. Cal your doctor to see if it’s alright for you to take them off & use a cortisone cream on them.

    toodlerue got a reaction from Frustr8 in Dry skin? Leathery feeling? Skin not as supple as before?   
    I had dry skin also in the 1st 8 months after my surgery. Lotion, lotion, lotion! Don’t take a shower or bath every day if you can. Don’t use soap on your whole body either. Just your underarms & private parts. Soap washes away your skins oil & you need that oil right now!

    toodlerue got a reaction from icebarbie in Fingernails tearing off bad 6.5 months out RNY   
    My thumb nails are bad & big toe nails are bad. I had a RNY 11 months ago. I also have a crack at the corner of one of my nails most of the time from my skin being so dry.
    Wish I had an answer for the both of us!

    Just goes to show that we all are on our own journey. What works for someone might not work for every one. Listen to your body & do what’s right for you!

    I took a lot of anti nausea & gasX the 1st 2 months post op. My daughter didn’t start feeling well until she could add eggs & soft foods after her surgery.
    Does your insurance have a nutritious you can speak with? We have Cigna & they called me every week for the 1st 2 months.
