I was sleaved Tuesday and last night I could actually take more than a baby sip.

I was sleaved Tuesday. Up till today I haven't had any fever. I have been trying to get more water in And I took some baby liquid fever reducer. It's dropped to 99 from 101.8. I'm hoping I was just dehydrated.
-
I'm kinda watching it right now. I'm worried it might be a little dehydration.

I was sleaved Tuesday morning.

Can we smoke 6 days after the procedure?
BooKoo replied to komi's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Well my surgery is Tuesday. I'm not sure it'll be put of my blood or not. I think quitting is harder than this two week liquid diet. !!!! In going bananas -
How did you get through 2 weeks pre op?!
BooKoo replied to danelle235's topic in Pre-op Diets and Questions

BooKoo replied to komi's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wish I wouldn't of read this thread. Lol. I use Copenhagen ( told the nurse) but she didn't even say anything about quitting ... I've never heard this before reading this thread. I have surgery on the 14th ,,,,,, is it the smoke and tat from cigs or the nicotine , if its nicotine I'm guessing snuff has an equal amount or more. On a side note , my life Insurence rep told me that nicotine stays n ur body from 3-6 months ,,. U would have to quit smoking for more than two weeks to not have it show up on there test. Js -
Everything was good for me except the EGD. ( where they run the tube through your nose to take pictures of your stomach . Wasn't a fan of that. Lol. The rest is just blood work X-rays and meeting with your diet consulting over Pre and post diets Nothing to it actually.

I did my pre op today and I have my surgery on the 14th.
-
Well my surgery date is the 14th of may. When I did the band there was 6 months of crap to deal with with my Insurence. ,,, sooooo I was beyond ready. But since in paying for it out if my pocket I walked in today and said how far back is scheduling ? They said the 14th and I said sign me up. Now I just hope I don't back out of it. I'm really ready to get rid of this band ,,, and actually have a good shot at losing weight and keeping it off.
-
Wow 12 hrs???? I would of freaked out. Lol
-
I was banded two years ago , due to complications I had my band unfilled . I've had two fills since with everything going fine untill about 5 weeks ago I bent over and I got a severe Charlie horse in my abdomen right above my band. It made My stomach swollen for a 5or 6 hrs just above the band,,,, I looked all swollen like when u come home from surgery . This has happend 3 times in a about 6-weeks. Has anyone had this ???
-
Hahaha, can't believe I didn't figure that one out. They finally got back with me 5 days later. They think it's cramping from me putting force from under the port. The said it doesn't happen much but it wasn't completely uncommon.
-
What is PIA ??
-
My Dr is lacking the urgency that I'm needing. Lol. I don't know what it is. You know that feeling of your upper stomach when u over eat ? Well that upper part of my stomach locks down in what I feel is a cramp , but it's the whole width of my stomach , and it last for 3-4 minutes. I had one yesterday and the swelling is just now going down Very sore. I hope it's just lack of potassium I'm just guessing.
