  1. I have not had any issues with my liver before surgery. I have not took any pain meds , Tylenol or Lipitor or anything like that. I just take my vitamins and I do get enough of my protein in. I still have my gallbladder. Just wondering what the dr will do when I go back tomorrow. I am so worry!
  2. Hello, I had my sleeve surgery 3 weeks ago and I went this past Monday for blood work. My dr call and said my liver functions was highly elevated.. Has anyone else had this issue before? I go tomorrow to see my dr. to discuss what needs to be done. I am so worry!
  3. I do not eat before going to bed. I have elevated my head. When I do eat I eat maybe 3 lil bites not much at all. So I know I am not overeating. But I have notice when I drink water instead of sipping like I did I will swallow more than a sip. It does not hurt. I am going to see how the Protonix is going to help since this is only my second day f asking it. Thanks for all the suggestions!
  4. Thank you! I will try this! Hopefully it will help!
  5. I am 18 days post-op . Was doing good until the last 5 days when I started to have acid reflux and heartburns. They are so bad that it wakes me up at night. No matter what I eat or drink. I call my dr and he prescribed me Protonic and started taken it yesterday. Tums does not help. Also I am constipated. Dr told me to take milk f magnesia or mralax. I have and only thing I get out f this is very watery. Any suggestions will help! Sometimes I wonder what have I done! When will I start to feeling myself again!? I getting all my protein in. Eating what I should, but this acid reflux and heartburns I am scare to eat or drink cause it's hurts so bad. Please help!

  12. I have a question. My office gave surgery date of Ocrober 4th. They want to to start my 2 weeks liquid diet on Monday. My question is I have not started on my vitamins. I am still waiting on my insurance approval first before buying. Should I go ahead and order my vitamins now or should I wait. Thanks!

    OCTOBER 4TH AS WELL. I START MY 2 WEEKS LIQUID DIET MONDAY. STILL WAITING ON APPROVAL FOR MY INSURANCE. HOPEFULLY WILL BE HEARING SOMETHING SOON.
  14. I started in February. My insurance require a 6 months nutrients visits. My last was 9/6. They submitted my insurance this past Wednesday. They call today and stated my insurance needed a surgery date to proceed with my approval. I have to go to a 3 hour pre and post- op class and wil have to go on a 2 week liquid diet. They said we should be hearing from my insurance by the end of next week. I hope that when the insurance needed a surgery date I hope that is a start of approval. Keeping my fingers cross and praying!
