I was prescribed Pepcid. It helps. Look on your drs webpage to see if he has a handbook on bariatric surgery.

I had my surgery last Monday (24th) and doing pretty good! I had no pain or nausea in the hospital! The only pain I had were the incisions. Just felt like I did too many stomach crunches. I didn’t feel like I had surgery! I’m on full liquids. I started riding my stationary bike for about 20minutes. It’s been raining here in Houston so can’t get out and walk. On about Wednesday I was having some nausea problems but that’s the only day. My husband took me to see the grandkids yesterday and I was sore more than usual. I think it was from the seat belt. When you get to feeling good to go out it might be a good idea to take a pillow to put across your belly. I just got finished eating Cream of Mushroom and Chicken Soup mixed with 1c of 1/2% milk and 1/3c of instant powdered milk. It was DELICIOUS!! I ONLY GET A 1/2c. I go back to the dr Wednesday. It looks like so far I’ve lost 10lbs. Now that’s according to my scale. I’m pleased!! Any weight loss is a good loss!!

I start my liquid diet at noon today. I have to bathe with a certain kind of soap. I don’t rinse for one minute. Dry off with a HAND TOWEL!! Put on Clean pj’s. The sheet have to be clean. I put on a patch behind my ear. This is getting ahead of the nausea. Nothing to eat or drink after midnight. In the morning I take the same kind of shower before I go to the hospital. I take Emend (anti nauseating) pill. Not to scare anyone but this 1 pill was $110. Thank goodness I reached my deductible and out of pocket. I have to be at the hospital at 10:30 and surgery @ 12:30.

Thank you Megan Sadler! Great idea.

Thank you Screwballski!

So well said FLUFFY562🙂! My surgery is Monday! It helps reading all the comments. I really I to put mind on the positive and not the negative.

My surgery is Monday September 24. Gosh after reading all these comments I’m wondering if I’m king the right thing. I called my daughter to tell her my surgery was at noon on Monday, she thinks I’m not ready mentally or physically. She was so negative! I don’t think I want her at the hospital. I’m ready and nothing is going to stop me!

I just signed up with this app! My surgery ESG is September 24! Is see my dr Monday to give me more do’s and don’ts. I’m excited! It took me 90 days to get approved by the insurance.
