My only side effect with Gabapentin is that it makes me a little wonky if I take too much. Like I get a little too talkative and too outgoing. And a little fuzzy-headed. But other than that, it's not bad. My Topamax side effects were baaaaad.

My surgeon recommended I take Pepto after surgery for the nausea and upset tummy. It helped a lot. -

Has anyone cane home the same day as surgery?
HatheryOnHerWay replied to kelley5989's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I did my surgery outpatient. I didn't go "home" because it was in a different city, but I did go right back to the hotel the same day. -

People treat me different now
HatheryOnHerWay replied to notmeanymore's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
In our society, most people few larger folks as less attractive than slender ones. Here's an interesting article about a study Dateline did on how people treat "Unattractive" vs. "attractive" people: http://www.nbcnews.com/id/3917414/ns/dateline_nbc/t/face-value/ -
Did your surgeon add stitches after he put the staples?
HatheryOnHerWay replied to WeeWers's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My surgeon also put in some sort of material to cover the staple line. I think he essentially described it as being cow stomach, and he said the body would just absorb it eventually but it prevents leaks during the healing process. I was a little horrified, but it makes sense. -
Not so supportive boyfriend...

Do a forum search for "easy route" or "easy way out" and you'll see that unfortunately many (if not most) of us have faced this accusation from friends or family. -

You'll do great! Congrats! -
Anyone experience pretty severe gastritis while healing after their surgery? If so, just wondering what you did to cope. I've been taking 40 mg Prilosec, Pepto 2x per day, and using a heating pad.

Calcium Suggestions?

My doctor recommended the Viactiv chews. I've been taking them ever since surgery, with no issues. -

Porn Mags for Women or How to Get Your Woman to Add to Your Porn Stash
HatheryOnHerWay commented on joatsaint's blog entry in Gastric Sleeve Surgery - An Unexpected Journey
The only difference is the women's mags don't usually feature any full monty shots. The articles are certainly graphic, though! -

I was checked for h. pylori prior to surgery. I don't have a gastroenterologist, but if things don't get better I'm sure I'll get one I'm much better today than even this weekend, so I think the "regular" PPI is working. I wasn't on one before.
