Hello I was wondering If anyone has October Surgery dates and how are you feeling about it being right around the corner and how are u spendng your time now that the hard part is over ur approved and have your date

That was ment to say my stomach! So has anyone else had very very loose BM as I am really suffering and just on water?? And not a lot of water at all! Op was Monday loose B M started on Thursday when I got home?? Please please tell me someone else has had this and I haven't got c diff .... Xxx

I had the revision as well. If you aren't taking anything in that would give you a thicker bm, I'm not surprised. I was very watery today. Have had eas advantage protein shakes, broth, sugar free Popsicle. I am having my hub take me to the store to pick out some cream soups to get some calories in. I am sure with your concerns that the surgical team would not be against a phone call good luck to you

Thanks Anne, have made the call but they told me if it Carrys on I may have a bug and I need to see me gp. Still worrying like mad as I don't think I could cope with anything else going wrong :-(

Omg, I just realized why I had a larger scar on the left side, but now seeing your's I know it was from my port. I too had a revision. I love sharing on this site, cause it just fills in some of the little blanks that you might not understand.

Thanks

Hi all drowsy and a lil pain but surgery went well

Glad your surgery went well. First dew days is rough but it gets easier and easier each day. They took out my gall bladder at same time so im glad for that. I find that i have to chew my few REALLY good or it feels like it's stuck.

3 days post-op! Here's a pic of my incisions. They are glued shut and I have minimal bruising. I haven't had any head hunger yet and still going strong. Got my 60g of protein from two shakes today and got 64oz of water too! Still quite swollen from the IV but that will be gone in a few days.

Crap band in nov 2007,#1 lost 80lb by the may 08 then next fill I went to have .. i have a flipped port they could not gain access to it so along came op#2 then I had to wait for tissue to heal so they could do a fill, so went 8 weeks later and surprise surprise it's flipped again! No fill for me and so came surgery #3 where they say they will suture mesh to my stomach wall then attach the port to that, so it doesn't flip again so at this point I'm like screw this, but off I go and get back on my feet again.Then gallbladder attacks they were fun, not! It took them 8 months to diagnose me with stones 7 of them, so back I go for op #4 then I get an infection back in to hospital i go have a little chat with god and come back again. So then I'm getting so much pain when I eat and constant pain from port site I'm back and forth like yo yo! The hospital I went with give you 2 year contract, I was out of time so I went to a new doctor and had to appeal my case to get my band removed and switched to a RNY it took 2 yrs to fight my case and Monday this week I finally got op #5! And here I am :-)

I'm just on water on jello and and a bit of clear soup they said I can have a few more things than I'm having but I'm avoiding anything that may give me worse BM than I'm having already xxx

Your scars are so small and neat..:-) my port site (the biggest one) is concave because where the mesh was my new surgeon said it was like concrete and they had to dig it out of me so missing quite a bit of tissue and its really sore :-( x

Wow, that was a real band mess, I bet you were truly pissed by the end of the crap band. Well I am so proud of you for fighting to have RNY! I'm sure things will look up from here. Congrats!

My surgery is scheduled for 10/29. I am getting nervous at this point. I feel like I have gone through so much to get to this point.. And now the life changing event is around the corner!

You will do great, being nervous is normal. Praying for a non eventful surgery and speedy recovery for you!
