Im A May Sleever!



Recommended Posts

Hi

I am due on 15th, but I am n Australia. I suppose to stay for 3 days post op, but I am diabetic and did have a kind of cardiovascular problem, I think these three days is essential for the dr to make sure that everything is going well for me.

As ur doctor choose for u only one day stay, ur health might b stable and he thinks that u don't need longer medical attention post op. u shouldn't be worry if ur health post opneeds longer stay make sure that ur dr will never discharge u.

By the way shorten ur stay in the hospital if don't need too is much better as this will decrease the risk of getting the hospital acquire infection. So just b positive and don't hesitate to discuss any of ur concerns with ur dr, that is ur health and ur right to feel safe and comfy

Good luck

Amany

Gwen. What part of NJ?

I was told no caffeine. Decaf coffee or tea is fine. My hospital actually will serve that on the tray to me day after surg. My NUT gave me a list of what will be served in the hospital.

costco shakes are the best! I highly recommend them. They are called premiere and buy a magic bullet blender it's great!

I am still waiting for insurance approval. But I am scheduled this fri may 11 !!

I was told no coffee as the caffeine is an irritant to the stomach. Decaf is ok. I had been a serious, daily coffee drinker for years an the withdrawal was awful. I had a 5 day Migraine and ended up having to take one day off work because I felt so sick and weak. I have been off coffee for a month now and don't even miss it. I even bought a small latte this weekend and didn't finish it.

Plus all the calories And the money that I save makes it worth it!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
