I have surgery scheduled for next tuesday ( lets see if i can make it i am in ALOT of pain) I had all the Fluid taken out of my band today.... But i am still having trouble keeping fluids down... When i drink the pain gets so intense it makes me sick and throwing it up seems to be the only relief.. I have read that throwing up is part of the problem with gallstones.... Lets hope it gets better because right now the pain meds arent even helping :( :(

Omg princess!! I'm so sorry that you're in so much pain that makes me sad.. Can it be Tuesday for you already?!?! It's even hard for you to keep hydrated when you can hardly keep that down... Hang in there. Your suppOrt group is here!

Thanks babs I needed that I just wish he could have done the surgery sooner!!! Gallstones are no joke!! I will be glad when that thing is gone!!!!!!

Please make sure you stay hydrated. I know you can't keep liquids down but try ices and ice chips. If it gets too bad go back to the ER and insist on earlier surgery. My prayers are with you.

Just an update!! Today I feel back to normal! I guess taking all the Fluid out of my band and letting it rest last night was best! I can hold down liquids today! Woohoo (I think its been since saturday since i have actually had a drink of any kind) i have enough pain meds to last me to Tuesday... Hopefully it will not flair up again till then!!! And my Dr said the surgery souldnt affect my lap band.. THANK GOODNESS... ( On a bright note even tho ive been miserable my weight has dropped to 185... i dont think Ive weighed that much since freshman year of highschool!!)

Well I have been in the emergency room all day I have gall stones... fun fun... So i have to meet with my lap band dr tomorrow to talk about removal of the gallbladder! Wish me luck Im scared they will say something bad about my band and want to to take it out! and i am not ready for that!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best of luck to you. Have faith that all will be well. This will be a distant memory soon and you will do fine. Love the name BTW.

Thanks! I will be glad when this is a distant memory!!! I have since learned my grandmother and ALL her sisters had their gallbladders removed between the ages of 23-26 I'm 24 so I guess I fit right in with my family! They all told me once it was removed they have never had any more troubles! I cant wait for this thing to be GONE!!!
