  7. After an emergent band removal and 6 months healing time, I finally got my RNY bright and early Monday morning!
  8. Actually kinda got behind the pain while I was sleeping and didn't push the pump...more pain now than earlier and super queasy for the last 30 minutes or so. Just got some zofran so hopefully that's about to calm down. Back to lalaland for me! Gnight!!!
  9. Sore, loving morphine but really doing great so far. So happy to be on the flip side!!!!!
  10. And officially on the losers bench. All went well, a lot of adhesions to clear out and SURPRISE had a hiatal hernia that got repaired as well (no one knew I even had a hiatal hernia!!) Hitting my morphine pump on a regular basis, would kill for ice chips right now (10:00 tomorrow morning I get ice chips). Will be heading out to walk for the first time in just a few minutes. I did end up with a JP drain and my catheter is still in. All in all doing much better than expected on night ....so happy to be done with it!!!
  11. Headed out the door as well... In the immortal words of Tone-loc...let's do it!
  12. So not getting any sleep at all tonight :/ too much going on in my brain!!!!
  13. That's the same protocol as my doc. The flint stones each have a fairly high iron content so mine doesn't require additional iron unless yours gets low.
  14. Oh no!!! I'm so sorry!!!! Heal quickly and hopefully they can reschedule you quickly. Good luck

  17. But the breakdown products get expelled when you exhale or removed via the potty.
  18. Your body burns the fat that's in the cells and the cells shrink, once you have made fat cells they don't go anywhere but they can shrink as you use the contents for energy.
  19. Okay now that I think I'm going to live....I woke up just after midnight last night throwing up my toenails.....spent the morning sleeping or clinging to the toilet for dear life. In between those 2 activities I was bawling because I knew if this didn't pass they'd cancel me for tomorrow!!!! I'm now 7 hours vomit free and drinking water an a little juice like a crazy woman trying to rehydrate myself and make sure my electrolytes are okay for tomorrow.....think it's all going to be okay now but ROUGH MORNING!!!!! BUT it did make for the easiest day of clear liquid diet ever
  20. Good luck to the five I us who are up tomorrow!!! I'll try to drop y'all a line tomorrow when I can but as you can imagine, I probably won't be around much for a few.....plus I'm a wimp on pain meds and will likely be sleeping a whole lot!!! Feel free to update the list if any new comers come along!!! See ya in the flip side!!! (Holy cow, it's really tomorrow!!!! Yay!!!!) Prayers with you all Br3n143-February 11 SoccerMomma73-February 11 rocky-February 11 Kellyk2511-Febrary 11 chrissy1147-February 11
