winny

Thanks Lucas

Thanks proudgrammy, the pain really was so bad, had a great night last night my new meds seem to be helping, along with a third pillow,to prop myself up. my Dr. Did tell me it is quite common in the first few months so hoping to keep it under control.

I will try to leave at least 4 hours before bed

Thanks so much, my dr also added another med to try to relieve so hoping tonight will be better, he did tell me it is common....

Night 2 for me, started 4 weeks post op with the MGP, have had no issues up until now, so discouraging

Mine started 4 weeks exactly following my MGP .....really horrible not sure what I should do, will contact my dr. Tomorrow as this is now night 2 of no sleep due to the bile and the pain.

Hi Berry girl, yes I really like him, so easy to talk to and I think a wonderful surgeon, he explained everything to me. I went straight to the mini gastric bypass as to his suggestion due to my health issues, diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol , as my BMI WAS 30 he did not recommend the sleeve for me, so I took his advise. my son and daughter in law had the sleeve done with Dr. Perez also and are both doing awesome... i am am doing great tomorrow will be 2 weeks since surgery, I see him for a follow up, and look forward to getting the OK to get into the ocean and pool. good luch in your continued journey

Thank you so much for the advise, as I am still in Mexico for a few more weeks I am having a hard time finding things assumed the bariatric protein powder they sold to me would get me through, but today I will look for a clear protein that I can add to yogurt etc.

6 days out post opp having had a mini bypass in Cancun with Dr. Perez. I am feeling really great, and following my clear liquid diet, they also recommended me take a bariatric protein shake they sold at the hospital which I bought, and have been able to use starting day 3 well I can not stand this protein powder, but I really struggled with my protein shakes with the pre opp phase also after trying 3 different ones and flavours, any suggestions from members...not sure if I can drink the protein drinks 😕 I would rather go through having the surgery again before I have to swallow another ounce😕 I am managing very well with clear liquids and water getting in 70 ounces per day last 3 days.
