The unpleasantries of RNY!



Recommended Posts

I thought it would be a good idea to have a place where we can ask questions or discuss the icky and oddball things that we may not want to bring up in other threads.

So have at it :)

I recently went to the airport and when in the TSA line, I was asked to put my belt through the x-ray machine. As I am down 70 lbs, and I am too frugal to buy new pants, when asked to hold my hands over my head, my pants dropped to my ankles. I was wearing colorful boxers thankfully. What's the most appropriate comment to make when your pants are around your ankles?

[Hope everyone is having a nice day]

Ok so today was my first day off the prescription Prilosec. Well the stupid grocery store did not label their Italian seasoned ground turkey 'spicey'...I took 3 bites and have spent most of the afternoon in the bathroom. I'm puking just saliva and gas. It's so weird, I've never thrown up a burp before! I ate the evilness at 1:30 and still sick. I wish this would go away :(

I called the doctors office to have them give me a refill since obviously my pouch isn't ready to be independent yet, but when I got to the pharmacy their power was out, so they probably haven't even gotten the fax :(

Funny I had watery diarrhea from the get go and that stopped only as few days ago (I am 10days post op) Had a pretty normal one today but nothing odd about it.

I understand frugal! Try ur local goodwill or ebay. I got a pair of gap jeans at goodwill for .99 and the same on eBay.

Ur story is too funny. It had to make u feel good that ur pants were too big tho!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
