    Also you may want to go ahead of time and contact your local pharmacy that you use see if they keep In stock loratab elixir 10mg 480ml is what they gave me But really have a hard time finding it or if the hospital you are going to has a pharmacy where you can get it filled. The hospital is over an hour from my house and In! downtown Atlanta so my little local pharmacy has to order it. That means days without it

    Also I don't know if they explained the cuts to you cause I didn't not get that explained to me and was totally shocked in how many and the size of the cuts. But good news is that they are now very small nite and getting smaller every day.

    My name is Diana. Yeah my pains do far I believe are normal. I have only experienced the dumping syndrome one and that was totally my fault. I didn't pay enough attention to how something was prepared. I will warn you and wish someone had warned me them I would not have panicked when I woke up from surgery. The pain was the worst thing I have ever felt in my life it hurt all the way into my chest but they stopped it as fast as I screamed in pain. So I would still go through it all again if I had too. Cause living with my weight was bringing me down every day.

    If you can make it in that liquid diet then you have got it. No worries. I only had to do a week and doing that was what reassured me that I was going to be ok with it now 26 days after my surgery still having some pains and starting to want foods I know I can't have but still doing great. I don't regret it in any way already lost 28 pounds and walking better already. You can text me out call me any time If you want to talk just let me know and I will give you my info

    Your home is fine with me. But might I make a suggestion. Fort yargo is really nice and we could even walk while we talk as I know we all are suppose to do and it is always easier with others than alone. Let me know I just ready to hang out and talk with people that has had surgery or going to have it.

    Post op scared

    So we can drink citrus drinks and it want bother us that is great to know. I have been playing very safe with what I have drank and ate if it ain't listed in my book that they have me I really haven't tried it. But I will try this cause I know the protein is important. But that 8oz Will take me almost all day to drink is another problem I face. I have just now getting 3 meals in me with water without having chest pains.
  14. Just 7 days out of surgery and scared I have not took in hardly any of the protein shakes. Could really use someone in the Atlanta area to chill with who has this surgery as I am struggling trying to find things to do besides going out to eat like my friend keep calling me to do.

    I'm having a very hard time with the protein still and doing 6 meals it just ain't possible. The protein makes me very sick feeling and anything to do with milk in any way makes me feel bad. But doing all my vitamins so far very well. I follow up with my surgeon on the 30th

    Hi my name is Diana just had surgery 16days ago and really would like to find someone in the Athens Ga area who I can talk with about our surgery.
  21. Hi every one my name is Diana and I just had surgery 15 days ago. Yesterday had my doctor mail me my blood work results and within them my alt/spgp was high which is a liver enzyme. I am just wondering if anyone has had anything like this come back Right after surgery cause the range it was in was way above the normal range and before surgery everything was great. Also yesterday tried to introduce a new food that I haven't are since surgery and for the first time was on the toliet and dry heaving feeling like something was sitting in my chest. Anyone can give any type of advice I would appreciate it

    Just had surgery

    I understand that heavy feeling but like you haven't done with the doctor about it yet but it does seem to go away and never so bad I can't stand it. So how long since your surgery.?

    Neurologic issues?

    I guess that is true every doctor is different. I guess that is why when going into this research is really important as to whom does your surgery. I know I did allot of research before signing up with a group of doctors about follow up care and what all was expected. At emory university is where I had my surgery done so far they have been great the hardest thing is they are not close to me at all so just to run to them is not always easy for me but that is why I made sure that family doctor was in on every step of this also. I follow-up with my family doctor for most of blood work and so far so good on getting the care and support I need from my doctors. Also emory offers a patient portal where you can message your doctors and they are very quick about getting back to you. The only problem I face so far is my liver enzymes being high which ain't great but just going that is due to my surgery was only 9 days when that blood work was done. Last night was the only time I felt the dumping syndrome they tell us about and it was all my fault didn't realize that someone who prepared a meal for me cooked it in processes oils and it made me very sick. But was over it within an hour and back to feeling ok. My intestines feel as though they are rolling or should say things rolling through themwhich feels weird. From time to time have severe chest pain mainly when trying to do any of the protein drinks or cold stuff. Also been feeling depressed but learned a long time ago that if you can recognize it by yourself you can usually pull through it so I'm trying to get it off the house more even though my cuts arr still painful when I am very active
  25. I feel everyone I just had my surgery 15 days ago and doing protein drinks really make my chest hurt after drinking them. It is where I can only get down maybe 10 to 15 grams of protein down and not every day in the shakes but one thing s friend of mine told me she did was mashed beans in the food processor I have found that beans have more amounts of protein than allot of the meats. I was also constipated really bad until I tried this. I can't add anything to the beans but they are a whole lot more tolerable than other things. Had blood work done and had no problems with my vitamins and minerals or protein since adding this to my diet. I haven't consulted my doctor yet about eating the beans but they don't me sick at all.
