  1. I didn't do liquids or mag citrate either. I ate fondue with steak and shrimp at 7 pm the night before surgery. My surgery wAs scheduled at 10 am. I was fine. He told me nothing to eat after 9 pm and nothing to drink after midnight.
  2. He followed my GI tract down through the pouch and out the stoma. He said everything looks beautiful and "boy some surgeon did an amazing job!" Yup, regular as clock work. Don't get it. I was doing great until Tues/Wed. And Jenna I tried to pm you back again on myfitnesspal. 4 times I typed the message. 4 times I hit post and it deleted it. I gave up;)
  3. Nothing new as far as meds or foods. When I eat too fast or not chew enough I get epigastric pain with the nausea. I don't have that with this nausea.

    Yuck!

    Been vomiting since last night. Intense constant nausea. Can't keep anything down but Popsicles. Called the on call surgeon. He says he's 100% sure it's a stricture. EGD tomorrow morning. If I stop being able to hold down popsicles I have to be admitted today for fluids. I'm gonna keep fighting that.

    Yuck!

    Are you feeling any better? I tried to go without meds this morning. Yeah, not happening!!
  6. Sweet. I have family in Vineland. I'm near Hershey. So I'm about 1 1/2 hours from Sesame Place:)

    Yuck!

    No blockage. No stricture. He's not sure what the nausea and vomiting is about. He said it may be the start of my gall bladder going bad but Ita awfully soon. I have an appt in Sept and if it continues he'll do another u/s. For now I have nausea meds. They are helping greatly and I can eat small amounts of solid foods again without feeling 2 seconds from puking.
  8. The pool in my back yard and then Dorney Park at 5 weeks post op.

    Yuck!

    And now I see that apparently we are in the same boat right now! I hope you're feeling better;)

    Yuck!

    Thanks. Still at home. Popsicles are staying down. But I do wonder if I shouldn't have gone in just for nausea meds. This nausea is ridiculous!!! My legs have been cramping so I'd bet my potassium is low too. Guess I'll find out in the am:(

    Rounded Red.... I used to live in the apartment complex across from Roosevelts property. Well kinda across and diagonal. Lol! I know the feeling. I say I'm from Hershey cause no one knows my one stop light town:)

    My Fitness Pal

    I can use my iPhone so I can't see why you can't use an iPad.
  14. Have an interview today. Put on my "interview outfit" and certainly 40 lbs down my slacks are gappy and too large. My shirt is also too big but is passable. So I think to myself I'll indulge and buy a new outfit. I go to Lane Bryant (where my current outfit is from) and try on one size smaller shirts and 2 size smaller pants. Shirts too tight (not really but its too tight for my liking) and can't even get the pants up. I think ok so I'm only down 1 size in pants and the same size still in shirts. I get the next size larger pants. Umm they're too tight too. I think wth? I get the same size pant that's currently in my closet and gappy. Umm they're too tight too!!! How the hell is it even possible that I lose 40 lbs and I can't even fit into the same size pants as the baggy ass crap in my closet? I could probably get 2 of my thighs in 1 leg of my scrub pants. My slack in my closet and my shorts are falling off and I don't need to unbutton them to pull them on and off and i probably need to wear a belt to keep them up. But new clothes in a store I've always shopped at I can't even fit into the size I wore before surgery? Ugh, I hate clothes!

    Nurses Unite!

    One of these days we should definitely do a group session. Man, I wish I had a daytime Mon-Fri job:) I work full-time nights. I started as a day night rotator and it sucked beyond belief. I'm thinking of going to Centeal PA Hospice. Believe it or not, sometimes I prefer my cancer pts to my pregnant ones.
  21. Anyone else have trouble afterwards with tooth brushing or toothpaste. I gag and throw up everytime I brush my teeth. It's getting seriously annoying!!
