Hi May Surgery 2022 well tomorrow is the big day for me, so why I get Bun/Creatinine results back and it is a 25. I am thinking I'm staying well hydrated, I use 2 apps helping me to and reminding me to drink Water, so I'm thinking what else could it be? Like they say no news is good news because my doctor haven't said anything about it. Any feedback?

I agree had mind on May 24

Yay! I'm still a week away but can't wait.
I am really looking forward to some refried Beans and the ricotta bake.

I had my post-op check up appointment today (at 11 days post-op) and I’ve been approved to move onto purées - I’m so excited!
Scouring this site and online generally for ideas; if anyone has any suggestions they enjoyed at this stage I’d love to hear them 😀

Did anyone else have bad chest pains after surgery? I’m 3 days post op and it hasn’t went away. It comes and goes. They did an EKG before I left the hospital and said I was ok .

So i had my gastric bypass done last Thursday 26th May. I had it done under the nhs (i live in the UK) but the actual op was done by my nhs surgeon at a private hospital to help get through the waiting lists left from covid. The surgery i have been told but the whole ordeal was horrific. I was treated like a piece of meat. No one spoke to me to explain what they were doing etc. It took 7 attempts to do a simple eeg before theatre in which they ripped the pads off many times causing my skin to break open and bleed.. ouch. They then all be run me to theatre when i was manhandled onto the operating bed (I'm disabled) where the private theatre staff just grabbed my arms and legs pulling in all directions strapping them in things. No one once spoke to me to explain what they were doing. I was terrified. The next thing i knew the man said I'm putting you to sleep now. I wanted to scream STOP YOU'RE NOT OPERATING ON ME but i was so scared no voice came out. Once awake i was taken to a private room and basically left. They didnt even give me a buzzer to call the nurse. I was discharged less than 24 hours after surgery in absolute agony and scared out of my mind. I have never felt so alone and afraid before in my life. It has left me feeling extremely anxious and frightened have have made the wrong decision. My dietitian just rang me for 4 mins basically saying she had email me my diet plans... no nurse from the team has phone me yet but i was told this would happen on my 1st day home... completely unexceptable

Today is day 7 of pre op diet, I am no longer dealing with hunger pains. I do get a little lightheaded if I try to do anything to physical, ie. help move the dog house, and stairs suck.
I am down to 254.9 so I have lost 7 lbs.

How is everyone doing with their pre op liquid diet? What is your surgery date?

I know this one is pretty common, but it's still so important to me. Left the hospital off of metformin and checked my blood sugar the next day - 90. 90! I haven't been under 100 in so long. Very excited for my future health.

I work from home but only 4 hrs a day. I started back but definitely can tell when I have sat for 4 hrs. I stand up and my stomach sore. It's better. Today I went to the grocery and did not drink enough before going and I got weak. Ever get behind on drinking fluids it takes a while to catch up.

Having mine on Monday (31st) EEK!!!

little each day better.'

I’m sorry you read my post in a way that offended you @Sunshine Princess . That wasn’t my intention at all. It was simply sharing an interesting fact I’d recently stumbled across & that it’s an interesting example of the power of advertising. And, regardless of the fact 10 000 steps started as a marketing plan, I think it’s a good motivator.
Again, as I said in my post, congratulations on your achievement.

Oh man, the night before surgery was terrible for me. My surgeon had me taking so many laxatives that I was pooping food I hadn't even eaten yet. And I couldn't sleep because I was constantly on the john.
I should have treated myself to high quality toilet paper.

My wife said they called her 3 hours after I went back.
The doc said the surgery should only take 90 minutes to 2 hours.
So, two to three hours, I guess.

Hello and welcome. If you do a search you should find a thread for April surgeries and you can meet up with people at the same stage as you. Just click on the magnifying glass up top and type In April. You should see the 2022 surgery people there. I would paste the link but for some reason it’s not working.

Alright. Out of surgery, in my room, and pain is managed.

Walked to the toilet. Drinking Water.

I can do this.
