    Similar to RA, I have psoriatic arthritis. I was sleeved 7/8 and find that my joint pain has lessened. I was on Enbrel shots prior to surgery, but went to Otezla pills to try based on no side effects.. I should be taking 2 - 30mg a day and only doing one a day by choice. I don't want the progression of arthritis to grow otherwise I might not even need the meds.

    Ghrelin

    halfpintvsg replied to jennjarrid's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I sometimes get hunger pains.. But I think it's because I am not getting all my water in. My surgeon says that you will at some point get hungry. I didn't for the first couple weeks post op. But like I said, when I do feel it, all I do is drink some water and it subsides.

    The dreaded stall....

    halfpintvsg replied to alisawoo22's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I lost 19 lbs in first 10 days post op, but I have not lost more than a pound or two in the last 10 days. I was sleeved 7/8. Def discouraging, but staying positive and hoping it will come off more when my body is ready.. I am more of a 2-3 week stall.

    Drinking while eating

    halfpintvsg replied to bunnybunny626's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I find that if I eat and drink I am more likely to have food come back up. The NUT said liquid will sit on top of food and make its way back up, not to mention taking space in your stomach with liquid instead of protein.

    I know a lot of people had different pre-op diets. What about post op?
  16. halfpintvsg
    Went for my post op visit. He said that it should get better. Is this true? The wave of cramping/contraction I get def makes me whence. It's not with every bite or drink.. But def there more than I would like it to be. Is my body telling me something is wrong? He said if it hasn't subsided by my next visit or gets worse he will send me for a CT scan. Please tell me you all felt this and it's normal!

    Happens no matter temp. Nothing's typically never cold. Warm or room temp

    Throbbing in my sleeve?!

    halfpintvsg replied to nicolewilliams's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums

    Sounds like the contractions I get with food or drinking. Such a weird feeling. Makes me a bit nervous
  19. halfpintvsg
    Is normal. I feel almost like a contraction when anything hits my stomach. Is it normal due to healing? Is it reflux or GERD? I'm just curious how many feel this sensation. I am 1 week post -op. Rather than that cramping sensation, I'm feeling ok. Thoughts?

    Sleeved on 7/8. Each day is better. Just sore. Had small hiatal hernia repair as well. Still on water. Gonna try protein shake today. Not hungry, but smell of food depending on what it is can make me want it or run from the smell. I still feel the water traveling all the way down my esophagus and hit my stomach which I am told will pass. I am excited to be where I am and no real issues. Glad to here everyone is doing well also.

    Thoughts and prayers are needed please! Good luck to you as well!
