Bag packed for tomorrow! I'm a firm believer in less is more when going to the hospital. I've got-Chapstick, toothbrush/paste, deodorant, brush, panties, iPhone/iPad/charger/ear buds, non-slip socks, my own pillow, my stuffed frog from my son (to keep me company if I get lonely). I'll wear what I show up in (yoga pants and a big baggy shirt). I don't take any meds, I'm not on a c-pap.... Anything important I missed???

Having PCOS can increase your risk on having multiples, yes. You don't ovulate regularly and are more likely then someone without PCOS to release multiple eggs when you actually do ovulate....I've had multiple patients over the last 12 years who have lost 50+ pounds and suddenly become pregnant. Some thrilled because they wanted kids, some not so thrilled because they didn't....that said, I do know some people with PCOS that are not obese and are having fertility issues....I wish you the best!!!

Glad to have some place to go and ask stupid questions , confess our fears, seek advice.. Right now, it's a sanity saver!!!! HW 312, pre-op (lap-band) 294, pre-op (RNY) 255, surgery date 2/11/13, goal weight 154, current weight 241.6

It does a zillion things, slows down your heart rate if its over stimulated (people that pass out when the have blood taken are referred to as vaso-vegalling-out...the vegal nerve hyper stimulates and slows their heart rate way down and boom. It also innervates the viscera surrounding your abdominal organs. If its way off Kelter it will slow your gut down big time too. My vegal nerve had an issue with my lap band. And caused constant chest and shoulder pain...,a constant heaviness that as miserable and never went away until the band came out.....once it was out I was in heaven. Luckily with laparoscopic surgeries you can visualize the nerve better so rarely do they mess with it any more.

Any suggestions on liquid meals post op from our veterans?? I've attached copies of a couple recipes from my nut if anyone else is looking for ideas (Also I just bought a ninja chopper/blender and it rocks!!!!)

Mine is clear the first day post op then if no problems advances to full liquids either later tat day or the next morning, if all is well I go to soft foods after day 6....another one of those depends on the doc moments.

Sorry, I was having a moment. As long as its low carb, low fat, high Protein you should be good. A lot of people on here have to do shakes to replace 2 meals, a healthy snack, plus a low fat meat with green veggies for dinner...I think that would be a LOT easier to handle than this strictly liquids nightmare. As far as shakes, taste is very different, my favorite so far are the Syntrax nectars but even those are getting old. The unjury chicken Soup was tolerable but I wasn't a huge fan of the other unjury shakes....please note I'm a picky eater and HATE the protein after taste so take my advice with a grain of salt. Mmmmm salt..... HW 312, pre-op (lap-band) 294, pre-op (RNY) 255, surgery date 2/11/13, goal weight 154, current weight 241.6
