Seen my doctor today for pre admitting. Can't wait for march 24th to come. Kinda down because doctor said I might have to much scar tissue to do sleeve the same time. I'm praying he can because my insurance changes over in April. "Ugh"

Anyone else having really bad dry mouth after being home? I think it might be the nausea med, I have to put under my tongue 4x a day

I had terrible dry mouth in the hospital. Ice chips helped the most. Crush some ice and suck on it. Helps get your Water in too.

if you are on the hydrocodone liquid pain med that's what it is it stopped the day I switched to Tylenol

I found swishing Water in my mouth and gargling a bit helped a lot without actually swallowing.

I'm sitting in the hospital waiting on my surgery. I have been calm all the way until now. I spoke to my 9year old daughter over the phone and she started crying now I feel like I'm about to have a panic attack. Ughhhhhh

Thinking of you! Just had a bedtime prayer with my 8 year old. Sweetness is to hear your child pray for you. It's terrifying too. But deep breaths - we got this! I'll be at the hospital in about 13 hours. Hope you're doing ok. Post when you can!

Hi everyone. ... I've been reading posts on this site for a while now. I'm starting to get really excited and anxious. I Am scheduled for March 21 . I'll be flying down to San Diego...is anyone having surgery in Tijuana around that time? I don't have to much support from family and friends but it is something I've wanted for a long time. I'm 27 and ready to start a new life. Just looking for some positivity

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

      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! 😞
