  1. Hello my name is Sherri I had my surgery April 7, 2008. the day before the surgery was painful, not the not eating or the liquid diet, but the server headache I had I think from lack of caffeine, the surgery went well I didn’t have much pain, only around the port area and that lasted for 3 weeks, I used the pain meds until I realized that I was having hunger pains and the meds covered that... I could stay on the liquid diet.. so I moved to more solid food that gave me some pain at times but Jell-O and pudding would not take the pain away..I have had one fill but that didn’t make much difference so far and the next fill is late June... when I wake up I am hungry like anyone after going that long with out eating so I have breakfast 7 am go to work and by noon my stomach is growling so much then I have lunch, but at 300pm ish I get a sharp pain in my chest that settles into the worst hunger pain I have ever had...Why?? I have been over weight all my life and have starved myself before... I am and found out I am addicted to food.... Any one else had these issues?
