Morning everyone...hello cloey!

I still reall dont sleep on my side only because there is still a tiny bit discomfort and dont want to aggrivate anything or develop any unnecessary scar tissue...so i sleep on my side propped with pillows likeni did when i was pregnant.... Its actually really comfortable i wondered why i hadnt been sleeping like this before lol....

Curious how everyone is doing with sugar...i know its supposed to be all sugar free but i have the ok to have sugar since artificial sweeteners taste like acid to me...i still try though hoping i find the right combo... Stevia is what i keep trying since its the best...any suggestions???

Have a good day everyone!

I can only sleep on my back now- I have pain in my belly sleeping on my sides or stomach- but more so when I get out of bed I have a a very sharp pain in my abdomen muscles my doc says it's a spasm caused by a suture he gave me muscle relaxers that help. He said this is a very rare thing. Just wondering if anyone else dealt w this??

        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!!
