Watchjulshrink reacted to Queen ApisM in psych eval
Definitely check what would work for the eval. For example, I was already seeing a therapist, who assumed I needed to go through a special battery of testing/questions. The surgeon's office clarified that she just needed to write a letter addressing specific concerns, which she was able to do just based on our ongoing work.
Good luck!

Watchjulshrink reacted to Afrankrn in 6 weeks post op ZERO WEIGHT LOSS AND DEPRESSED
Looking at your carb counts from a pic you sent in, my Dr has told me to keep the carb count at around 30 or below as much as possible (goes out the window some during soft diet portion since most of that is carby) . Your carb counts seem kind of high in comparison, but I am not sure if there is a medical reason for that. That's my only observation. Hope it gets better!

My fear as well! At first was worried I would be living on the toilet, now I’m concerned for the opposite -
Watchjulshrink got a reaction from dwx1969 in Constipation
Hi all-had surgery 8/24 and prior was on a 2 week all liquid diet. My last BM was 8/19 and it’s now 8/27. I have taken Miralax, dulcolax, magnesium self ate…all of it and nothing. I know I’m not eating food and haven’t, but something should still be coming out-right?? Thanks!!

Not quite 2 weeks out and have been dealing with this also. Keep hydrated and moving. It helps. I was regularly taking Miralax, alone it didn’t do much. Used a dulcolax suppository and that helped a little. Added in Colace (two in the morning and one in the evening). That’s helping a little.
Once I got to purée I took oatmeal and blended it with either a fruit cup or applesauce to increase my Fiber.
Things are moving slowly…. But kinda moving.

Watchjulshrink reacted to summerseeker in Constipation
I can honestly say this is the one of the worst things I went through in the first 6 weeks. I tried everything and 14 days later still nothing. TMI alert - I put on a rubber glove and went in. The relief was wonderful. It happened once more then I have been ok ever since.
