Is Actigall Necessary?
spare replied to RosieSweetie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgeon prescribes Actigall for all patients with a gallbladder. I'm on it twice daily for 6 months, big capsules but thankfully they are not making me open them up (which used to be the recommendation for their practice and supposedly tasted horrible). -
Did doctor office call to check on you?
spare replied to cindyRH's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My paperwork states they will call you one week post op to see how things are going, this past Monday was one week for me and no call. I didn't have the best hospital stay so I'm not really surprised. -
Greetings from the other side(VSG)

I was sleeved 10/2 and the gas pains just began easing up today. Having trouble getting my fluids and protein in (and all those yummy protein waters are now disgusting). Short term pain for long term gain though. Glad to hear your surgery went well. -

Spouse staying at the hospital?
spare replied to Road2health's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Surgery scheduled for next month. My husband will be staying the two nights at the hospital with me. Our kids will be staying with my mom. He said he will likely go home to shower and give my mom a break for a few hours before coming back. -
My VSG Story - Fear of Failure and Celebrating Success
spare replied to Iconcinnity's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Congratulations on your weight loss and dedication! Just curious, what hospital you went through and who was your surgeon? -
Loved C25K when I was running outdoors, now I use a treadmill for convenience and its much harder to stay motivated.
