    Hi there, I'm also having a VSG done July 1. I'm filled with anticipation and anxiety at the same time. I can't wait to be done with the Cpap. High BP, bad knees and overall feeling like crap..

Post op day 3. Last night was not good. Constant full feeling is keeping me from drinking anything which I believe made me spike a fever. Call into doctors office to see what I can do. I took some miralax and that did help me go, but it’s all loose and I never feel less full. It’s super painful how tight my stomach is from the distention

Prayers that things get better and please keep us informed :)

I talked to doctor, they told me to stop my protein shakes until swelling is down and restart them Sunday. Today it seems to be better.

The doctor on call just called me back and he said that I can use Benadryl around the are to stop the itching can somebody tell me if this is a normal reaction or something else is going on please help (I woke up this morning with itching around my incisions all of them)

I was told that an itchy sensation was normal, and I've got the feeling with 2 out of my 3 incisions. It's not driving me crazy, but I do have to stop myself from scratching mindlessly.

I FINALLY have everything all done from food shopping to hospital bag and vitamins. I just been stressing so much I been failing my diet plan. I hope I don't gain weight or my doc will cancel [emoji21]. Anyone else have been stress eatting? I am nervous please anyone have suggestions? Lol

I also got the 31st for my RNY. However I broke my foot yesterday. I'm praying my foot does not delay my surgery. I meet with foot Dr. on Tuesday. I was so excited, now I'm anxious again [emoji22]
Hi, how's your foot? Will your surgery be delayed now?

Yay were surgery twins! Congrats!

My gut has been tight off and on but I’m able to drink short sips of water, broth. Did have a rough bout with soft boiled egg... owie my pouch of a stomach definitely tells me if I give it something it doesn’t like! So far so good. Another week of puréed foods...
