Is anyone having pains in the left side??? My side is hurting and feels like its in a constant cramp.

That is the only problem I have. My doctor tell me the stomach is to the left of the body and a course that is where the work is done. So that made it understandable to me.

If you don't have a tube it maybe gas pains. I know my left side was hurting so bad it felt like a burning sensation so I had to go and receive tardol pain shots (if I spelled it correctly), anyhow, I had to get 4 shots to make the pain go away. I was wondering why this wasn't given besides Lortab, it worked better and didn't make me feel drowsy.

Finishing up my last shift before surgery on Friday morning. I'm suppose to be at the hospital at 5:45 in the morning. I'm excited. Got over the nervousness last week. Now just ready to get it done and move to the losers bench.

I'll be going back in for surgery to remove scar tissue in my intestines Monday morning. They said its a pretty rare complication but they do see it and the fix is a simple surgery.

Thank God I am home. The pillow work out find. Until my husband pulled into Rite Aide to fill my prescriptions. He misjudge the entryway and I had relax the pillow for a bit. I will never let go of my pillow again. "Hurts!!" Now I have to keep track of making shakes, taking meds, when to take walk and make time for walking. With all that said I know that I with the Lord I made the right decision, and would do it again. Slide over make room for me. Praying for all those going into surgery and coming out. Thanks your prays as well. Let's get through this adventure together.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
