  1. I’m in the purée stage. I overdid it and now am feeling that sort of stinging pain in my chest ?
  2. I had my gastric sleeve done on Thursday. I’m not so much in pain as I am in discomfort. It’s difficult to drink the minimum amount of liquid. My fiancé bought fast food for himself yesterday and the smell of it almost made me gag.
  3. My surgery was initially scheduled for December 2020, but was postponed due to Covid. Today out of the blue I got a call that I could have my surgery on Feb. 18, 2021. This feels like a roller coaster. I’m nervous. A lot more nervous than I was in December when I originally thought it would be happening.
  4. Thank you for your response, @shalsura1 ! I hope your surgery went well ?
  5. I’m scheduled for gastric sleeve on 12/21/20!
  6. This topic was posted several months ago, but this is relevant to what I'm going through right now. H. Pylori was found in my stool test. I'm currently on day 7 of my 14-day regimen. Metronidazole 500 mg twice a day Amoxicillin 500 mg twice a day Clarithromycin 500 mg twice a day Omeprazole 20.6 mgdr twice a day Optional, but recommended by my pharmacist - a probiotic mid-day for the 14 days plus an additional 14 days after I finish all the medication listed above ? I don't see any responses in this thread as to whether the H. Pylori held you back from surgery. @AlwaysCruising , @Xx1jpt5xx (and anyone else) did this end up pushing your surgery date back? Thank you
