Vicki S~ I too had surgery on Nov 1st. I just started with the hunger pangs yesterday (4 days post op). My doc has me on clear liquid diet until post op check on Wed. I wish you well!

I am also getting sleeved on Nov 1. Very excited but at the same time a little nervous! Good luck to you Janine and let's hope for a speedy recovery!

I am scheduled on Nov 1st and totally excited!!

I was self pay, but, the doctors, (PCP and surgeon) considered my co-morbids as an important part of my situation. My BMI was just barely 35. So, some of my issues included, HBP hypertension, joint pain, chronic pain syndrom, Fibromyaligia, severe acid reflux, and hypertriglyceridemia. Which since the surgery, I'm off HBP meds, my joints aren't hurting, and I haven't needed to take my darvocet (pain killer)! I only 5 weeks out and am still totally amazed at this! LOL __________________ WOW-I seem to have the same medical problems. I had first considered the lapband but have since changed my mind. Have you been taken off any of your meds? I have not had my surgery yet but am wondering how it will affect me postop. I too have fibromyalgia and arthritis (joint pain).
