You are not going to die but you do sound dehydrated. You need to get to a hospital ASAP for some fluids! -
Anyone feel 'normal' after getting their staples out?
JSCRIMPSHIRE replied to AutismMom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I only have internal staples, internal stiches, and dermabond!! -
This happened to me too. My nurse said that if my Protein Shake contained whey- which it did- that that was the culprit. Lots of people can't tolerate the whey. Try isopure from GNC. it is in a clear bottle and cones in tons of flavors. It is DO much better!

Any other July 1st sleevers home?
JSCRIMPSHIRE replied to Bredred's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeves on 7/1 at 730 am and got to go home on 7/2 around 11 am. I had a lot of pain the first week home. The second week it started letting up and now I am virtually pain free. I am actually going to get a pedicure today in celebration of my 23 pound loss! I posted his in another tread but want to get other 7/1 opinions. My dr put dermabond on my incisions and it is beginning to slough off. One of my incisions- jut today- is looking like it is not closed underneath. It's not bleeding or anything it just looks bad. Anyone else have this issue?? -

Hate protein drinks
JSCRIMPSHIRE replied to JSCRIMPSHIRE's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
Don, I didn't LOVE them before. I have just gotten to where they make me a little nauseated when I drink them now. I am having a hard time getting 60g of protein in- well I'm not getting it in. I hope it will get better when I get off of all liquids! Thanks K for the info. I will visit some health food stores today and see what I can find. -
