Left lower back pain
shelleylester replied to shelleylester's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So here is the diagnoses. I have a pocket of fluid between the repair and hernia site. But that will absorb itself. He said i have trapped nerves and gave shots (5) in my tummy in the spots that the pain starts in snd should numb it out all the way around.... Not sure if we got the right nerves on the left but tge right is better. Its a steriod mixed with a long acting anaesthetic. I can get the shots 3 more times only. -

Fat free milk
shelleylester replied to shelleylester's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Just tried Fairlife and lovebit. Thanks so much for saving my milk addiction. -
Ok so i have been drinking fat free or skim milk since surgery. I just realized it has 12g sugar per serving. Ugh. Doesn't make me sick but my weight loss has slowed down. What do you all drink?

I appreciate the honesty. I too smoked for 30 years snd quit the morning of my surgery. I did start vaping instead. I am on the lowest nicotine level and hope to be at zero eventually. I did take a puff off a cig snd it burned my throat and tasted terrible after 7 weeks... Still off them but still want one all the time.

I just talked to my dr about this... I had mine 6/30. The taste in my mouth is terrible because of to much plant protien from shakes. Need animal protien. Milk cheese eggs... Also vitamin deficiency. -
Vaping after Surgery
shelleylester replied to Stars3825's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am a vape queen. I gave up cigarettes the day of surgery after 30 years too. I love vaping and it gets me through the torture of recovery. Unless you have a dog in this fight you should really save your comments to things you know about. -
