Ok everyone since we are getting close to December I figured I would go ahead and start us up a post op thread

I too am terrified of trying anything new at all. I don't want to be sick. I had a near dumping experience last night. I think I forced myself to drink my G2 Gatorade too fast.

Sometimes I'm so thankful to be a guy

Umm, yeah!! I mean, the miracle of birth and all that jazz, but periods SUCK!! And some guys wonder why we can get bitchy!! Lol.

I ate breakfast and then had some Motts natural applesauce' date=' unsweetened. I do not feel well at all. The applesauce is not settling well :-(

I'm so sorry!! Hope you feel better soon!! I just puked for the first time myself. On food I have been eating! Cottage cheese. I think I just ate it too fast, but it was painful!!

Ok guys it's back to the hospital for me I'm still so sick and weak and very pale I have become very dehydrated and anemic again even though I am on my TPN fluids through my PICC line 12 hrs a day

I'm literally choking down Greek yogurt with added protein powder. I want to slap the healthcare professionals who've told me over the last month to "just eat what you're supposed to" or "just drink the right amount"... Like this is all so easy. I want to hit my daily goals SO bad. Maybe today is the day.

I can completely relate. They tell you not to overstuff yourself. Well, when I get anywhere near close to my goals, I'm over stuffing myself I feel. The only way I do well is with those disgusting protein shots! But someone said to mix them with flavored sugar free jello, so I'm gonna try that. This is tough, but trial and error I guess.

being discharge from the hospital today after have plenty o fluid through an iv, plus vitamins and lots of potassiam, had an endoscopy done with s balloon attached to the bottom to open my narrwing... hope this works, if not its surgery alll over again

Happy to hear you're going home. Hopefully it does work for you. Now that you've even refreshed, via IVs and such, hopefully you can pick up from there and have no other issues :-) fingers crossed and good luck

Praying for you!!

Oh man, I'm praying for all of you going through struggles with your health right now. It's a tough road, no doubt.

Have copy coming. I am in the puréed food phase. They want Chinese. Do you think I would be alright with egg drop soup?

Yes u can!!!! Was my salvation!

BTW was it Josh Roller that did your surgury? Some one said Dr Roller in a post. He's my DR.

Yes he did mine and Jodi's surgery. Where are you from?

I do feel a little bit better today then the past days. I feel i am losing something, could just be my mind. Lol but i dont think i am getting all the protein in. This horrible taste in my mouth makes me nauseated. Even brushing my teeth 3 times a day and my tongue doesnt stop that taste. If i could drink just a little faster i could get this protein down but i sip and sit my cup down sip and put it down. I am getting bored. I can tell you for sure i am not walking like i should but i am going to get on my wii fit today and do the walking thing. If that person on the inside of the game doesnt start making comments lol.

Sending prayers to the ones having problems and that your able to overcome the problems and the pain. Good luck

OMGooodness...It took me until noon to get my morning protein shake down.. I'm just on my third bottle of water..I feel like I have "real" food stuck in my throat...I've also been in a bitchy mood all day and I'm still constipated!

Good news is my follow up is tomorrow!! Biggest fear..He'll rip my steri strips off..lol...those bad boys aren't going anywhere any time soon!!
