Not me! sounds pretty invasive and high risk. why would they want you to get one?

talk to him about the money end of this. sometimes this helps with the guys. does he realize how much the surgery will cost if you dont have it by 9/1/13?

Is it ok to take Immodium?
Tink22-sleeve replied to Brian Randolph's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I would start with the pepto. Constipation is a side effect of the immodium and the constipation is worse than loose stools. -
I stayed 2 nights and was glad i did- for the pain meds, IV hydration, extra help from the nurses and techs, help with the first shower, "meals" provided, and especially the rest i got with the IV pain meds. Best of luck!

What's the Hardest Part?
Tink22-sleeve replied to Canary Diamond's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I thought one of the hardest things about the pre op and liquid post op diet was not being able to chew. SF popsicles are a lifesaver -
try some warm decaf tea. it helps to get in some fluids and is very soothing. My rule for the itching is to "pat the itch" no scratching. patting the itch really helps. give it a try. Im 6 months out and I dont belch very often. im more likely to get the hiccups.

tying my shoes bending over, without effort was one of my 1st NSVs too. the NSVs will just keep coming and they feel so great. Enjoy your progress!

pain in left chest and arm should I call my surgeon
Tink22-sleeve replied to littlebigman's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had terrible pain in my left shoulder for about 3 days post op. they told me it was from trapped CO2 gas from the surgery that get under the diaphragm and the pain is referred to the shoulder. a heating pad really helped alot. glad your pain is gone -
did you have your psych eval already?

Tink22-sleeve replied to txaty08's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
