Hi I am a little over a week out of surgery. I started mushies yesterdat and everytime I try to eat them I get a side ache in my left side that lasts for an hour or so. Has anyone else had this or know what it is? :biggrin:

I'm not sure if its same thing but I read in another post that someone got aches in shoulder when they ate too much (gas?) maybe... I'm not getting banded until Aug 5 and going to same doc as you... I feel confident about doc but nervous about procedure in general - that maybe somehow it just won't work for me. Did you feel good about hospital? Doc? Hotel? thanks, sorry, I'm not able to help yet.

Yeah I know the gas in my shoulder feeling. This is different. Its lower and deep in my side. I think Im going to go back to liquids for the rest of the weekend till I talk to the Dr on Monday.

Majpie-If you want to know about my experiance with the Dr, hospital there, and hotel, you can go into my thread in July bandsters called "my mexico thread" Here is the link http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f18165/my-mexico-thread-98183/ It documents the whole experiance day by day as I was there getting banded with Dr Rumbaut. And if you have any other questions that arnt in there, just private message me. :tongue2:

I couldn't eat mushies until week 3 and by then I was pretty healed and it didn't hurt. If it still hurts on Monday call your surgeon and ask.

Some people say that the ache in the left side is a sign of being full. Remember that being full will feel different now than it ever did before. Hopefully that's all this is. :tongue2:

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
