HELLO I AM DAY 6 I WOKE UP FEELING GOOD BUT AFTER MY SHOWER AND FIX MY Breakfast I FEEL SO SICK RIGHT NOW I CANT EVEN DRINK MY BREAKFAST, I HAD TO TAKE A NAUSEA PILL. LAST NIGHT WAS RUFF I MUST SAY. I THINK I STRESSED THE MAIN INSISION AND IT BOTHERED ME ALL NIGHT THE ACHE WENT ALL THE WAY TO MY BACK. YES I WAS SCARED BUT I KNEW I WOULD BE OK. I THINK I AM HAVING A REACTION TO TRADER JOES SPICY BLACK BEAN Soup, KEY WORD SPICY LOL.

I WAS ABLE TO GET MY 60 GRAMS OF PROTIEN IN AND I THINK THAT MADE ME SICK AS WELL I WAS FORCING IT BUT I COULDNT FINISH IT NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRIED LOL.

I HOPE EVERYONE WHO HAS HAD THE SURGERY IS DOING WELL. PLEASE SHARE YOUR PROGRESS SO WE CAN LEARN FROM EACH OTHER.

Newgrandmother - way to go on your progress and dedication.

thanks guys. scared it was so dang long. my appt was 1120 i didnt get seen till 1210 than after the dr the nut came in i left there a little after 1pm.

Way to rock that sleeve newgrandmother!!! Sounds like you are doing a great job following doctors orders. Glad to hear you only have to take two vitamin/ supplements.

I'm kind of nervous for tomorrows appointment. I have to admit I have been bad, I haven't been taking all my vitamins nor have I been eating or drinking all my protein. I can't even get all my water in.

Ugh! Wish me luck.

scared just be honest with them. once they get on your case you will follow instructions. im doing everything but excersise just cant get it in

bukki thank you, and im glad you are doing well yourself

Well I went to my 3 month appointment and I feel it was a waste of my 2 hours. There was a large group of people and the nutritionist went over everything we had discussed pre-op. Didn't have blood work until 6 months post op. Ugh! Pretty upset I was hoping I get some help with my eating options but now I have to call to set up an appointment with them. I think I've mentioned this before but I really don't like the nutritionist that I was assigned. If I get her I will request for a different one.

Hope everyone is well.

and you are with kaiser? thats odd

call the playa vista office and ask for katie. that is my nut she is most helpful tell her whats going on

Thanks. Yea Kaiser So. San Francisco.

Is that playa vista near marina del Rey? If so I used to go to that Kaiser before moving north.

I was very disappointed. I'm going to call my dr. To have her order labs for me.

call and ask for katie im sure she would be able to talk to you it is kaiser. its weird how each kaiser do differant things she told me all should be on the same page. i dont have her number on hand but call playa vista office and ask for her.

Thank you. I will try giving her a call either tomorrow or Monday.

I thought they were all the same. We had a large group of 20 ppl. And all thought we were to get blood work.

yea thats weird. let me know what she says

LET THE HAIR FALLING OUT BEGIN!!!

OMG, i noticed it a little here and there at first and then this week a little more. This morning I could not believe how much I pulled out while shampooing/conditioning. I am pretty convinced its from a lack of protein. I am going to up the protein as of today and hope I can reverse some of the damage. Anyone else??

Parker how much protein do you get a day and how far out are you?

I'm watching everyday for it to start. I'll be 3 months on the 12th. I've mostly it's happening when shampooing. I started just softly rubbing the shampoo and conditioner in without scrubbing my scalp. Not sure if it'll help me or not. I'm so not looking forward to it.

My hair has been coming out for about a month, I'll be 3 months out on the 13th. It's horrible how much hair comes out when I wash it. Going out tonight and have no idea how I'm going to do my hair so I don't look bald
