Hi to all, I live in Spring. I am 7days post op. Things are getting better. I was in alot of pain at first, but now just preasure just below the diaphram. Did any of you experience this? My doctor is Dr Waggoner at NCMC. He and his staff have been great. If I call with questions they answer me right away, no I'll call you back or just blow off answers. I'm an RN and this has been a hard decision to make. I've seen alot of the problems that can happen. When I decided to do this I decided to go by the "book". The only problem I've had doing that is I am still on full liquids and my calorie count is staying around 500-700 a day, and i'm feeling very shaky and dizzy. i've upped my shakes (EAS) to 4 a day and 1 isopure. i have been doing sugar free jello and popsicles too. Any sugestions to help with this? Please feel free to talk with me anytime , this is a new change and i would really like the companion on this journey.
