Day 5 of preop diet! Made it through Thanksgiving with chicken broth and a little bit of turkey in it. Doc said I could! Just having some tummy issues. Anyone else? Is it normal?

I'm on day 10 of my pre op diet and have had stomach issues the whole time. Not sure if it's normal ...

That doesn't sound good! Anything terrible or just different?

Not to be tmi but when I go it is loose.

Well u guys, I assume since if all ur puttn in is liquids then all u start getting out is liquid or loose stools. Bc although its to shrink the liver, ur body has probably cleaned out most if not all of the backed up stool, and bc of increased liquids, its going to b soft. Imo, I don't think its anything to worry over. HEY, Andrew, how's the rash fairing, better? Well gl all and Happy December to the group and I look forward to our successful stories soon to come!! What a Christmas present:))

Worried!

My surgery is on December 3rd and I just started feeling the symptoms of a cold. Do you think they will cancel?

I think you need to call your dr... Mine said that if I was under the weather to let them know ASAP so they can call in antibiotics or whatever and not cancel.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
