Swollen and elongated uvula?
aleja908 replied to jembell01's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I thought i was the only one going thru this i had my surgery done on 11/19 and still gagging not as much but i feel it. I hate it!!! I did see the doctor and took tests and they say it should heal on its own. I do the gargle with salt and warm water and it helps. It does feel like its shrinking but its the worst feeling.... -
How do you feel after drinking acidic juice?? Orange juice or eating tomatos ...
-
I like the syntrax stawberry kiwi but i will definitely try that fuzzy navel! Thanks!
-
Im a month post op... have a huge craving for an orange or orange juice lol ive been drinking the v8 also.

Had my sleeve on 11/19 and today is 11/29. Since i left the hospital i havent had anything down and just been vomiting. I am so dehydrated that im at the er because i just couldnt take it anymore. I feel like im slowly dying. I regret making this decision. This has not been a good experience for me. I feel depressed because no one understands me. They all tell sip little by little which i do and i still vomit. I shouldve been happy with my fat!!!! Happy and fat!!! However best wishes to those that it has gone well. Wish mine was like that too.

Thank you. Im at the er now i told them to call my surgeon. They did an xray and im due at 11am for a cat scan. What is that stricture or twist???

I made it to the losers bench. Btw can someone tell me why they call it that lol. I am post op 1 day... feeling a bit better still sore. Ive been giving toradol and something else that starts with a d lol i spent my whole day sleeping after the surgery was done. In a few hours im getting the leak test. And if all goes well ill be getting some liquids. I havent felt nauseous yet.

I finally had a bm!! Lol And im starting to feel nauseous in the morning. Ive been drinking my shakes half a cup in the morning and the other half in the afternoon. Jello is not going down so good but my broth is. Did anyone get pain meds? How are you taking them i got prescribed percocet, can we swallow the pill or do we have to crush them. My largest incision is hurting a lot but when does it stop hurting?? Do you think ill be able to go out for thanksgiving day?? Hope all of you are doing good. We have made it this far keep up the good work!!!

No it doesnt look infected it just red. They didnt do stiches or staples the doc put some sort of glue and he said it should fall off on its on. So it should be okay to swallow the pills??

Hi fatty, how are you feeling?? -
This was my breakfast couldn't eat the jello, or drink crystal light i was so nauseous

It is great that you aren't nauseous! I'm jealous!!! When was your surgery? A lot of folks go 4 or 5 days with no bowel movements. Personally, I had diarrhea the day after surgery...blah. It sounds like you are doing just fine though.Thank you. I had surgery on 11/19 how about you. I was just discharged from hospital and had only a jello again this morning and it went down fine. Ok im going to keep a look out on my bm.I had surgery 11/16. I'm still very nauseous. Also in some incision pain, though the only one that hurts is the one the stomach came out of. I've also had continuous diarrhea. Dr told me to stop Protein shakes but there is no way I will get all my protein in if I do that so I am very confused. Maybe if you do half of cup of the shake ... thats what im doing but when i drink it, it feels like a burning sensation when it goes down my throat. hope u feel better! -

Pre-Op Struggles!
aleja908 replied to kelleyesanders's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am on day 10 on my liquid diet..surgery in the morning and i was strictly on liquids. The first 3-4 days were the hardest ... i felt like gagging on everything. (I think its mental) but after that it was easier. I tried to eat a soup a day and my 3-4 shakes a day and definitely the sf ice pop and sf jello... i got to have a few oz of diet juice a day but that didnt help much .... and lots of water!!! Good Luck! ???? -
