BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

I don't know why these threads make me giggle like a 6 year old calling someone poopyhead but damn, I can't resist!

Just a Drop discount info

There is a little history here. DS is a WLS type, it is kinda like extreme malabsorption and it makes your poop and farts so bad people could faint. I mean it's HORRIBLE! This is something DSers battle all the time. It's so bad if they fart the stench clings to their clothing. Others complain openly in public restrooms. I'm telling you, it's extreme. They are forever having to keep Fabreeze and specialized products with them 24/7. One bariatric surgeon was telling another person about a patient where he was removing her gallbladder. She farted while under anesthesia and they were gagging in the OR and since it was the middle of surgery, he couldn't leave the room. The gallbladder patient had DS.

He went on to say that if a DSer farted in an elevator, when the doors opened people wouldn't be rushing out of the elevator, they'd be dead.

There are WLS type wars on OH all the time. Bandsters tease DSers for stinking and they tease us for barfing. They are forever insisting they don't stink yet they keep companies like this in productive business! HA

This thread just cracked me up, I've been laughing since I read it. I just can't imagine my husband wanting me to buy EXTREME odor eaters for the bathroom and clothing. I can't fathom this conversation in my home!

It's not funny that DS patients stink so bad, it's not. But if you saw the horrific things they say about us, referring to our bands as laugh-bands, choke chains, if you saw how they degrade and insult banded people for being banded, maybe you would understand my childish laughter going on right now.

If DS patients eat carbs that is when it is apparently the worst. One piece of cake and they get instant gas and clear a building. Yeah, I'll take my choke chain any 'ol day over farts that are lethal and a stench following me each place I go.

Oh geez....

Probiotics??

>>Post Date: 7/20/08 12:14 pm

Hi all, I started taking a probiotic pre DS just to see its effectiveness. I have smelly poos now and sometimes bad ones like a RnY poo since I have RNy in my system. I started taking 2 a day and last week increased to 3. Sometimes I do think it works great; poos not smelling bad, and then other times not workiing so well so I don't really know. Well so I am thinking maybe just wait till I do get the DS to see how it works? It has 1 billion live cells and is acidophilus. It was the only one at Walgreens. Maybe there was another; I am not sure. I am going to get to GNC and check out some there and to check on the D and I do need calcium citrate so I really do need to get some of that.<<

The drugs aren't working PRE DS but that's okay, she's going to wait until AFTER DS to see what happens.

Holy crap... she's in for a surprise. ;o)

OMG!!

If her poos are so bad NOW that she needs these meds and are not even working… then are we ALL in for a surprise.

If you are ever in the public restroom, for a little relief out in the world and as you are sitting there you notice a smell of death that hits you like a ton of bricks… you will know.

omg LOL ewwwww

Why isn't DS more popular?

^^That link just pissed me off :thumbup:

Honest Experiences with Poop and Gas Issues

Why would anyone want to have the runs everyday? Don't understand it...to lose weight not worth it.

DS sounds completely and utterly horrible.

I don't know, I still can't get over the lady with stinky poops now, probiotics aren't working, but she's going to have DS anyway and "see what happens." Who needs to wait for DS to see what happens? If she has that problem now with RNY she's going to have mega problems with DS.

Gross. Some people....

You know, I just refuse to respond to someone that starts a thread with "potty problems." We are adults in this world! Is it sinful to speak and behave like an adult on an adult message board vs. writing like a 5 year old??? Sorry, pet peeve of mine.

I'd rather spend more money getting my band ajusted then smell like a cowpie :|

and yea why do they talk like kids? they say Poo and potty and poops LOL

The quote from one of those threads on there that gets me is

"I'd be sleeping away and my wife would be dying. I'd wake up to a fume of farts and perfume as she tried to overpower my smell."

Ewww. LOL

Today I also saw a thread about DSers exchanging clothes...I thought...'I wonder how stained or how smelly these clothes are' LOL

Did anyone elses bowels hate them BEFORE surgery? (Kinda long)

"I have pooped my pants more than any 5 year old, I could write a telling book, for sure." OMFH

LOL yes that was a quote that got me too LOL

I think that's the same guy who pooped in a bucket...not sure though LOL

Reading their threads and ours, just makes me wanna run out and get DS quick like!

lol i posted in the why isnt ds more popular thread pissed some people off
