12/31 surgery date - 1st time in a long time that I am excited for NYE
JamieDawn replied to ursomajor3460's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Your shoulder pain is referred pain from your stomach which shares nerve pathways. It should resolve itself soon though. Glad you're getting your liquids and protein in!! The tiniest of sips has been making my sleeve gurgle and cramp. I'm hoping that is short lived! -

Surgery - December 27th!
JamieDawn replied to stephhine's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think it's crazy how we all have different rules our diets. I was on clear liquids while in the hospital and now on full liquids for two weeks. -
Just a few days now! I check in at 8 am Monday morning. I'm scared but excited. I've never had surgery before! So ready to start this journey!!

I'm having the same gurgling/ cramping trying to get liquids down and I think you're right about the hiatal hernia repair! Hopefully it gets better with time!

Mine went really fast! I've heard people's periods starting pretty quick too. Hope you are feeling better! I'm having trouble sipping liquids and haven't gotten any protein in yet. I plan on trying a pre made shake tonight. I'm so excited for us! We made it! Happy New Year to us!!! -

We made it through! Pain was pretty intense immediately afterwards but have gotten a handle on it. Now just dull ache. Prayers you guys!! -
How are you feeling post-op? With pain meds I still have pain/soreness but nothing like when I first woke up! Hope your night is going well!

I'm packing some pj's so I won't be stuck in a hospital gown if I don't want to be. I'm bringing my pillow ( I work at the hospital and the pillows are flat!) toothpaste/brush and stuff to wash my face as well as some lotion. It's really dry here! And technology! Kindle and laptop -
