All tests show clear. No clots! May just be muscle pull/soreness but for 7 days! Glad to rule out everything. Going to get an Rx for liquid pain & inflammation. They did find inflam around old port area but that's not where my pain even is. Praying it just goes away soon! I cant sleep or get comfortable in any way. Of course 4th day with migraine.

Scans are all clear. Just inflammation around old port area which isnt where my pain even is. They think it must be a muscle pull or something. They're going to give me Rx for liquid pain & an inflammatory med. Dr. Garcia in MX told me I could take Motrin....i had read we shouldnt take NSAIDS...hmmm. Pb is low 110/54 which keeps changing. Now waiting to see if the unhelpful baratric drs that I saw a few times before will see me in their office to f/u. I doubt they even will & I dont want to go bc of the way they treated me before. Good grief! Glad the tests didnt show anything but frustrating bc I dont know how to get rid of it. I cant even sleep at all! A constant pain that never subsides. This sucks.

No clots! Bp is 104/57...was lower even. Waiting on all xray/scans test results.

Sleeved 3/13. Not on any blood thinners, never was. I read some were afterwards but not me.

Well..im in the ER waiting for results. Day 6 of crazy side cramp pain. Had EKG, chest xray, ct, bood. I had elevated level in blood that detects clots...now we wait.....ugh. Please say a prayer!!! Sarah

This damn side cramp pain is horrendous! Omg..going on 6 days & dr hasnt replied back to me...3rd day with migraine. I think I've been hit by a truck...or a train. Hurts to breathe! Just shoot me.

Can I have some of what you got? Lol You're my same date sleeve sista! I'm afraid to even look at the scale so I decided not to for a few weeks...like only 1x a month or I know I'll get bummed out. Praise the Lord at your amazing attitude! Keep it up and best of luck in ur continued success!

Def not constipated! Got some gas drops they make for children that was recommended by a nurse friend but its same ingredient as my GasX strips so not sure how it will help but i'll try anything. At home now, puppy got out, had to run all over neighborhood trying to catch her, my electrotherapy lead came off my back & was dragging in the dirt (pulled back out a week ago) & the a/c guy working on the house next door ended up catching my dog and noticed I had something hanging... a little comical moment. Good grief! I need a stiff drink! Lol

Im having intense sharp cramp like pain in left side for 4 days now..omg...if I sneeze or yawn or hiccup I want to die its so painful! Just deep breathing is hard to do. Wrote dr for suggestions other than Gas X strips and walking as I don't know how to get rid of this! I had hoped mine would just go away too but it hasn't.

Prayers go out to all! Keep the faith! Hug hug!

I just read in another thread there is some of the "good" kind of Protein shots on Bariatric Advantage website so I looked it up! This is what it says: Yes Whey From the makers of the first protein shot, Yes Whey™ is the first and only to use 100% pure whey protein -- and nothing but whey protein. Yes Whey was designed to help consumers feel at ease about the quality of protein they consume. While other companies boldly use the word 'whey' in their brands, Yes Whey is the first ready-to-drink protein shot made exclusively from whey protein. This guarantees that the protein going into your body has a PDCAAS* of 100, the highest quality rating a protein can receive. [READ MORE]

Becareful with the liquid proteins as I heard they are made from different types of proteins that aren't really absorbed by the body. I believe the moderator on here said that so I'm staying away from them. Whey Isolate is the best kind to get and I'm not sure it's made in liquid form.

You will do just fine! I did this alone as well. My mom was too preoccupied with family in town who ended up in the hospital that I honestly think she forgot I just had 3/4 of my stomach cut out of me in another country! I could drive so it was fine really. I have a puppy that I had to take care of too. God was my strength through it all & still is. Have faith in Him to take care of you! Many hugs!

I hv more! Shamrock shake & thin mint gs cookie shakes! Just add peppermint extract to vanilla or choc protein shakes! Nectar brand are great & Lean Dessert whipped vanilla cream is delish!
