  6. I will be 5 weeks tomorrow, I have never experienced nausea, I have never had gerd, but yesterday, I had very moist mushy scrambled eggs mixed with grits, and Today, I had some fajita chicken with peppers and onions, cooked very well and mushy, and it got stuck and i had to make it come up....why is this happening now and not before.....I would think it gets better, not more difficult...anybody??

  9. So, I have had reactive hypoglycemic since I was a teenager..absent of diabeties...so when we are talking about "late dumping", is that what we are talking about, and if so, why do they call it dumping?

    frightened

    I think they want you to lose 5-10% of your body wt...to see if you can adhere to the diet after surgery....

    I've been told by many to up my calories so your body comes out of starvation mode...so I've gotten the calories up by doing small meals and snacks..doing about 1000 a day

    Now what's wrong?

    thanks, hope I dont get one. but doesnt sound as horrible as I thought it would be...
  20. I dont know whats wrong with me, or even if it has anything to do with nutrition....I am really nervous and jumpy, snappy, depressed, and I havent slept good for about a week, and absolutely NO sleep last night...I even have sleeping pills and I took one last night and nothing! so after about 3 hrs I took another one Lunest 3 mg...the strongest...and I still havent slept...did anyone else have this problem...Im 5 wks out today..dont feel well...help....I just feel like crying...
  21. Yes, talk to him,,I just switched from 10 mg reg to ambien CR....I hope you get some relief..It is horrible when you cant sleep and cant eat either..I know its been rough for me...:/
  22. ambien has a short half life ...only 2-3 hrs..so it is good at putting you to sleep, but not keeping you asleep...thats why they came out with the CR...maybe talk to your doctor, and dont take them with food, it slows the absorbtion..
  23. I think I am not absorbing some of my meds...sleeping meds for one..I was never told that my medications would be compromised, and i never really thought about it.....Is this a possiblility?? are certain meds more likely than others?..does anyone know about this or have a link...thank you
  24. I didnt copy the whole thing they also said you dont absorb other medications as well...so you cant count on anything being absorbed!
