Wow no more crushing works for me. The swallowing was never a problem. Guess i should have asked my doctor about it. Nurse at hospital told me that i would always have to crush them. Thanks for the help!

I was sleeved at end of July and lost about 43 lbs. I have had no problem eating or drinking, but i just hit a brick wall. Slowly over the last few days, my taste buds are dead. Everything i eat or drink tastes poisoned with bug spray or weed killer. I have been crushing my medicines and that has tasted horrific. I was wondering if that did it, or is this common to wls patients?

Study Finds That Gastric Sleeve Helps Resolve Diabetes
mrvsbhs replied to Alex Brecher's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm really lucky. I had the sleeve a month ago and have not needed my diabetes pills since. If that is the only thing i ever get from this operation, I would be grateful. They were going to start me on insulin before I decided to get sleeved and diabetes has affected generations of my mom's family. -
It's been a month since my sleeve. I did the liquid diet for a week, then full liquids for another. Ever since that, I'm been good with most solid food. I do chew it into a complete pulp, but no problems at all. I have not had any kind of pasta, pizza, soft breads or tomato products. Worried they will make me sick. Is it normal to have no foods that give me no problems? I have been losing, about 40 lbs since the week pre op diet.

I just keep reading about how rough some have it and was thinking I'm screwing up if I'm having different reactions.
