My mouth is so dry..Can I chew gum?
wimkim91 replied to readytoloselbs's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was banded on 3-19 and gum makes me really nauseated...but that may just be me...sugar free peppermints are good!! Just be careful to not accdentally swallow it! -
Oh wow...how common is this, and what can you do to prevent it?

Everything has been great! I am 16 and i am the youngest patient dr. warnock has had. I have grown up with him though, both of my parents had RNY when i was 8 so Dr. warnock is like a member of my family. I have lost 20lbs since my liquid protein diet...so march 9th. At the hospital, the staff is great! I am terrified of needles, so the anesthesiologst did my IV...I had surgery at 7am and was walking around the hospital at 4pm...the nurses are FANTASTIC! Bramley is the cheif nurse and she has had RNY(i think) but 2 of my nurses had WLS and one is having it after she has her baby. I love dr warnock and his family...he had a daughter that had RNY when she was 19 so he understood my situation from a parent wanting the best for their child...he is the most amazing doctor i have ever had! Im sorry for rambling on but if you want to know more i will be happy to help you!

How do you know when your port flips?

My port is on the left side directly inbetween my belly button and rib cage. I was banded on the 19th and I cant even see my incisions...except for the port!!
