I thought it was from not eating food with any substance in the 1st couple of months. As I added more food choices that required more chewing I noticed that it went away.

Are you drinking a bunch of water? It could smell because you are dehydrated.

Good luck. I pray that everything goes smoothly & there will be no complications.

Oh great I take 4mg of zanaflex almost every night.

How hot are they to wear? I just can’t imagine wearing one in the summer. I can’t even imagine wearing on in the winter time in Phoenix!

I am work with a pain management also. Directly after my surgery I had liquid Norco prescribed my my Surgon. After my 6week follow up he turned me back over to my pain management doc. I take tablet form pain & muscle relaxers now.

I use the PatchMD patches. I take way too many other pills. The patches are so easy!

I felt the same way. What the heck did I do to myself? Give it time, it will get better.

Welcome back to life!

I took a lot of gasX, Dramamine (25mg meclizine) & a few pain pills for the 1st 2-3 months. And regretted even having the surgery. My daughter said I made it look so easy. I was just hiding it.

I wonder the same thing.

So what are the ones that are better? I’ve been drinking Premier for the last 1.5 years!

Congrats! Such a big accomplishment!

I have used one for over 12 years! I wear It so my husband doesn’t hit me during the night! Hahaha I too wake up feeling like it is going to blow off my face & with a very dry mouth. I had A home study test the beginning of the year I had the lowest number of episodes a person can have to have apnea! The doctor lowered my pressure & it was still happening. So I GOOGLED HOW TO CHANGE THE PRESSURE on my machine & DID IT MYSELF! I just took it down from a 5 to 4.5 & it is much better now.

I had a pain pump. But I don’t think it was an On-Q.

It all depends on you! I can have a limited amount of sugar without dumping. Then I over do it & feel terrible for about 15 min. Sometimes I have just 2 bites of a cookie & then throw it away.

So glad you were able to enjoy your day! 6 months ago you also wouldn’t have had the energy to last that long at Cedar Point!

I have always taken mine to the hospital with me & I have never used it their.

I take about 14 pills a day. I don’t crush them. That was too biter!!! I just Take them with my morning protein drink or water. I still need the cpap. I tried sleeping without it for a few nights & my husband says I still have apnea. I have lost 60 pounds.

Ice! You can freeze water in a Dixie cup & then use the big ice cube to massage your hip. I have also used a “muscle roller stick” on my hip when it felt like a very, very tight muscle in my hip. A foam roller can also help.

Russel Stovers SF candy.

Wow! This could explain why I am So much more emotional!

Does your insurance have a nurse or nutritionist you can talk to? We have Cigna. I would speak with one or the other every 2-3 weeks in the beginning. I had A RNY for medical reasons, my BMI was 33 so I had A Thorasic Surgon. He told me to get all my info from the internet.

Have you already had WLS or any kind of esophagus or stomach surgery before?
