I had my surgery on 4-14-16 and fortunately i had no vomiting....I would go to the ER where ur Dr could ck u....If u cant keep anything down i would think something needs to be checked by tue professionals...and u can get dehydrated very quick...i wouldnt chance it, if it were me...Good luck & hope u feel better soon...

So i had my sleeve on 4/15/16 and lost 27lbs so far, i mean im not really eating much alot of liquids up to this point and have 1 more week on pureed foods...Today when i seen my doctor he said he would have liked to see more of a weight loss and a additional 40lbs come my next appt on 7/14/16....I cant wrap my head around loosing 40lbs in 2months especially that its not liquids anymore now pureed then back to solids.....Is it really possible to loose 40lbs in 2nonths??? I hope i make sense on explaining the issue....Im really stressing over the thoughts of this.... Sent from my SM-N910P using the BariatricPal App

So im now 13 days from having the sleeve and since the gas pains have gone (they were the worst) i have had no other issues, thank god...But right now in the area next to my belly button where the made the biggest incision im having these pains and its tender to the touch..No sharp by no means thats why im not running to te ER, but a soreness def...I did take all my Vitamins and 3oz of my Protein shake together about an hr ago...I tool my time taking them but never have i taken then together...Usually because the chewables arebso dry i jave to sip the Water, today i just dipped my Protein Shake instead...Do u think that could cause this??? Maybe when i do with the water its lighter then the shake....I dont know any1 have advice??? TYIA Sent from my SM-N910P using the BariatricPal App

Leading up to my death?
DMH82 replied to 1cutiejulie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Omg, i thought i was the only 1 who had these thoughts and not just the happy and excited thoughts....I was fine until the night before my surgery...I had to drive myself to the hospital at 5am because i have 3 young daughters that needed to get to school and hubby had to do it...So of course the night before im making sure i didnt forget anything that needed to be done for the time i was going to stay at the hospital (my hubby is good but not that good..lol..with 3 girls, school, dinners and softball it was better i had everything in order for him..lol..) Anyway, after i sat down i said to myself i need to write a letter to my daughters and him if, god forbid something happens...I even thought, why would u think like this??? But in reality things happens whether the chances are low and i always worry and thats just me....I wrote my letter and even writing it made me sad and cry.. I left it in a place i knew they would see that night as they were getting ready for bed...After the surgery i told my him when he got home to get rid of it...Everything went well and it was the best decision i mad...im so very happy i did it...I wish u the best and a speedy recovery :0) Sent from my SM-N910P using the BariatricPal App -
Im 9 days from my sleev surgery and ive always been a pickle lover...Today i have the obsessed urge for one, just the juice..lol..Pls dont think im crazy..lol..only another pickle lover would understand this... Do you think i could suck on a pickle, they are only 5 calories a spear and i just want to get the taste??? I wouldnt try to swallow any of it, do you think it could hurt anything or be a bad idea???? TYIA.... Sent from my SM-N910P using the BariatricPal App

Worst Life Experience Ever
DMH82 replied to anitavee's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am sorry and my heart goes out to u during this time....I am a firm believer that in the end what will be, will be...I know this is different but pls understand where i find my belief in this...In 2007 i had the Mirena put in and in 2009 out of nowhere i was nauseous, i mean sick, i swore it was the flu but no it wasnt, i was pregnant...If i remember correctly there is a 2% chance this can happen and it had chosen to happen to me...I was in shock, i didnt know if having that and getting pregnant would cause any defects in the baby, u know its such a critical time and on top of that in my mind i felt as tho i had already lost the baby because i knew the Dr was going to have to remove the IUD :0( I went in and discussed it with my dr and had it removed...i told myself if she was meant to be here, she will be and nothing would interrupt that plan, if there were any longterm issues because of this, we would get through it...And sure enough she is 6yrs old today :0) and my everything...She is happy, healthy and i wouldnt have changed any part of the process because she is a fighter, a strong little girl, was then and is now....I hope sharing that gives u something to hold onto in thought...Sending my prayers during this time of heartache....

They were so good...its 745am and i took a sip of the juice..lol..i swear so far its the only thing that has really hit the spot of what i wanted...I dont know why but alot of the things like the Jello, broths, even the Vitamins are kinda making me alittle queezy now and i feel like i can taste out the unflavored protin powder in everyrhing im have to mix it with and that really is also making me nauseous..dmh..i know ima mess..lol.....So i just try to get it down when i have to, but its like 1 of those things that i know later on im not ever want again...When i was pregnant i ate so much chinese food that now i wont eat it ever, i just cant..Well any whoo, the pickle and juice is really satifying...im a vinegar lover....I cant wait to get my big jar of pickled veggies, Mmmm cant wait :0) Sent from my SM-N910P using the BariatricPal App -

U might think it wont stop but it will give it time...i was told u can have 500 mg of the Simethicone (which is the strips) in a day, so thats 8 a day and i was taking that many woth still no releif but maybe if u increase them u will have more success..Keep ur head up it gets better in time...

Omg, i jave had 2 pickes since my last post and they were great..No stomach issues after and they actually make my thurdt issue better...Its like they activated my taste buds and my mouth isnt so dry...Thank for the support :0) Sent from my SM-N910P using the BariatricPal App -
Omg im so happy, well im sorry....but so happy some1 else understands what ive been going through...I had surgery on the 14th and same thing, woke up in recovery very nauseous and in pain, crying and dry heaving...Instead of morphine they gave me dilated (not sure i spelt that right) and it knocked me out, everytime i could have it they gave it to me because i was miserable and in pain...So in return i wanst walking and the gas built up, ive continued to be in pain in my chest, back, shoulders and of course stomach and along with my 7 incisions...Unfortunately for me nothing helped but time...9 days now and i still am blowded and have the pains just not as intense....i asked for more pain meds and they said no because it will not help with the gas...its really been the worst part of it all...i had 3 c-sections so i expected this to be a walk in the breeze, boy i sure was wrong...smh...i wish there were something i could tell u to do but i cant, only time....

Sleeved today...so far so good
DMH82 replied to camry2016's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Congrats glad to hear ur having such a good recovery...Wish i could have said the same, i had 3 c-sections and though i knew pain but this was a shocker...i had surgery on 4-14 and i was in so much pain they gave me dilated (i thinks thats spelled right) because i cried from recovery and hrs into the night after they tried to manage me with morpahine and it didnt work...the pains in my chest and back took my breathe away and the pain in my stomach...smh...everyday is better but they say it was gas and i walked the following morning to find no relief...now a week later i still feel the gas in my chest and back but no were near the first couple days....i dont know but i havent heard any1 elses story of how it was for me...
