My Fellow 9/4 (Or Last Week) Sleevers - How Are You Doing ?
billyvmom replied to Odee's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am doing better no solids yet but, the pnemonia is better the meds for the blood clot are stabilizing and I'm finally out of the hospital. -
I would stick with lortab just smaller dose
-
Is anyone having weird dreams? I had one last night that it was the morning of my surgery and my surgeon made me watch her eat whole I couldn't or she wouldn't do the surgery. Hmmm!!! I may be a tad resentful of the diet she put me on lol!!!

It took 5 days to get my approval through Cigna

I am a week out and I have to make myself drink and eat so I would definitely check into dehydration or the acid reflux. I feel bad for you and will pray that you get your sleeve figured out. I wish it was the same for everyone. Them we could just use directions. Don't get discouraged you will succeed!!!

Pnemonia cleared up on blood thinners the next 6 months but I am leaving the hospital 21lbs lighter and get to start enjoying my new life vs. being held hostage at Mercy! Yay!!!

The Good,the Bad,the Ugly, & The Absolutely Terrifying!

I got a blood clot from not walking as much as I should have and didn't blow into the stupid machine 10 times a hour now I'm back in here so listen to what they say even if you don't want to. -
Whats On Your Bucket List?
billyvmom replied to SkinnyMinnie2Be's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I want to go to my reunion instead of finding a excuse not to due to me not being comfortable with my weight. -
I am back in here with possible leak, pneumonia, and blood clot in my left arm. I hope it's ok not looking forward to all this crap! Why can't this go smoothly???

Go on a cruise Be able to eat at fancy restaurant and not have to eat taco bell on the way home because, I'm starving. Wear a swimsuit without being embarrassed Shop at a store that has no plus sizes. -
I think it is that's why they make you blow into that stupid machine. I should have done it more.

Leaving For The Hospital! Surgery Today =)
billyvmom replied to Odee's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was doing ok now I'm back in the hospital with pnemonia and a blood clot both on left side. Feeling a little junkie but, know this too shall pass. Hope you all are doing well! -
No leak!!! Blood clot I left arm and mild pnemonia in left lung. The pnemonia symptoms if I laid in my back it hurt to breathe. If I inhale deeply I cough.
-
My white count is through the roof and they said that leaks mimic pneumonia symptoms. I am having a CT scan and a leak test shortly. Plus I'm having a Doppler of my left arm which is severely swollen and painful. My dr said that I would feel appending doom if leakage that severe depressing can be a symptom of a leak.
-
Getting ready to leave for the hospital. Surgery in 3 hours. Wish me luck! I'll let you all know how it goes.

How Am I Supposed To Get Liquid In?
billyvmom replied to billyvmom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 4 days post op and am getting an ounce a hour and I'm using that with protein shake with water. I know I'm dehydrated but can't get anymore in. -
They let me leave with a low grade fever. I am not really nauseous but, the few times I've been sick feeling I smelled alcohol wipes and it cured the nausua. I kept down 30 cc of tomato soup and 30cc of pudding my water intake is the worst . It's so hard to try to get it but I'm too ful.
