Hi everyone, So I recently found out that I have an H. Pylori infection. Doc prescribed me three medications. My surgery is scheduled for Feb 11th. I asked the surgeon's office if they would retest me for h. pylori to see if the medicines worked. They said they usually dont and that once u complete the 14 days of medicine the infection will be gone. Does anyone else have input about this? Those of you who were infectes with H. Pylori did ur surgeon's office retest u after ur course of medicine? Should I push for a retest or am I being paranoid? So far I have not missed a dose of my medicine (I have 7 more days to go). I am sooooo confused because I do not want any unncessary complications post surgery:/

This is my last day of liquid pre op and I sooooo miss being able to have something to chew lol

Thats good...glad to hear ur ok:)

Lol will do

Thank u so much...and I will report back about my experience

Thats great. I go in for surgery Monday. Cant wait to hear about ur approval:)

Mine did too! Yay!

I started this process in June of last year and I have been going to appointments, support groups, having blood drawn, sleep study etc since then. My surgery date is February 11th and now that time is winding up it is all beginning to feel so real like OMG I AM REALLY ABOUT TO HAVE THIS SURGERY. I guess since I have been at this process for the last eight months in alot of ways surgery felt like a far away dream. And now that I am gathering all my vitamins, food and making preparations as far as packing my bag I cannot believe that this upcoming weekend will be my last one pre-sleeve. I am so ready to start my new life and see what the other side has in store for me. I am so over being the tall, smart, fat girl. Has anyone else been having this epiphany type moment of "Wow, this surgery is really about to go down"??

Thanks good luck to u too

Thanks good luck to u tok

Yeah me too. I guess when ur nervous about something that means its a special change about to come:)

I totally agree, it is diva time and I am so ready to head to that finish line. I am getting things together too. I hope ur surgery date gets here faster than ever...see u on the post op side!

Thank u:)

I LOVE laughing cow, so tasty:)

Yay congrats!

I think the point im trying to make is add a little variety to ur diet for a day, more than just Protein shakes and Clear liquids. I didnt know u were JUST sleeved, maybe u should relax and not focus on the scale, the weight will come off

How about just having a full day of indulging. Like I said dont over do it and make urself sick but splurge for a full day on things that taste good but may be high calorie. This ought to get ur body confused.
