Gas x strips for ride home

Codine is an opioid in which causes constipation.. Give it a few days. Your bowel movements will be different for a while..try prune juice.

try taking smaller sips.. Im 4 months out of vsg. If I take to big of a drink or to big of a bite . it hurts like hell. . I had the same issue at first so I went out and bought a sippy cup.. I used the sippy cup for 2 days. Helped me take smaller sips...

Im 4 months out of vsg. Here came the 3 week stall. And still stalling. Back to protein shakes, to get my protein in. This is the only thing I can think to do to break this stall. I do know that my clothes are fitting diffrently, just wish the number on the scale would move.

What's your thoughts on raw organic honey?

Lacerated my speen. Mind you I flew home across country. This was done at mexico bariatric center..yes this can happen any where . should have been caught before going home.. All so the cleanliness is not up to the United States standards.

I would say being in the 50 percent range is still great.

At the time of sleeve gastrectomy, mean BMI was 43 and 78% of patients were female. They had a mean follow-up of 5.9 years. Overall, Peterli and colleagues found that the average excessive BMI lost after 1 year was 61.5%, and then 61.1% after 2 years. By 5 years, average excessive BMI lost was 57.4%, they reported.Jul 17, 2013

Yes it's normal to have a little bit of nerves. .It's a major life choice. Obviously you feel the need to have this done. Then do it! Do it for you. Knowledge is power..learn all you can. Defiantly get you vitamins!

I knew something wasent right.. I procrastinated. .my pain wasent getting better but worse..a horrible pain in front shoulder, uncomfortable feeling under left rib. I can all so say the drs here in the states frown on us going to mexico...i figured due to money. Comes to find out it has more to do with cleanliness and safety measures.. I have a feeling it's going to be a long battle.. 3 weeks out can hardly hold an oz of food .. I just want to get healthy ! Resume my life..

I did not go Oasis of Hope in which I wish I would have I went to Mexico bariatric center what a huge mistake it wasn't very unclean very unsterile they lacerated my spleen finding that out when I got back here to Michigan it almost cost me my life they decided to remove 95% of my stomach which is not recommended please do your research before going to Mexico

Make sure you do your research before going to Mexico for surgery I ended up going to Mexico Bariatric Surgery Center in Mexico what a huge mistake first of all I can say Mexico is not the cleanest it when it comes to being sterile and following protocol for safety measures my Iv fell out and was dragged on the floor the nurse that wanted to reinsert the needle back into my arm. They have a little Tin Cup to keep alcohol and cotton balls together. the tin cup had people's blood on the rim. the showers had bloody bandages clearly not clean. Never once did they change their gloves from Patient to Patient. To top this off I had my surgery they removed 95% of my stomach which here in the States that is not recommended. I returned back here in Michigan and I knew something was not right I decided to go into the hospital to get checked out they lacerated my spleen I was lucky to be alive I immediately contacted Mexico bariatric center they told me that my diagnosis was incorrect that I would have died there basically saying that a CT scan was wrong I tried to contact them raising matters that needed to be corrected for safety purposes they seem to not really care I thought I did my research and it was pretty thorough at what I was looking at boy was I wrong nearly costed me my life!

I ended up canceling my surgery at oasis of hope..do to unforseen circumstances. I have nothing bad to say about them...they refunded my deposit.. Now I'm going to Mexico Bariatric Center on June 6th. I believe things happen for a reason.. I started my 1 week diet. I feel bad a ate a healthy Protein salad...but now I start my liquid diet and im ready?
