It's costing me $13,500 out of pocket and includes 4 fills for a year. After that $300 for each fill.

I'm new to this forum. I had my Lapland done Monday

How long does this belching go on?

Lol mine was done Monday too. And it's probably good to be belching. My gas pain was in my left shoulder Still there a little. I know I had two hernias to fix but I'm in so much pain still.

So it's karma88 again. I have to say I'm a little annoyed. My surgery was March 1 so 5 days ago. No one has called from the Dr or hospital. Now I'm not high mainenence at all but can a girl get a shout out like " hey we noticed we put 6 holes in your belly. How's that going?". Come on. Sorry feeling a little bitchy.

I was Mar 1 also, and since then I have had 2 follow-up calls from the surgery center, and 2 from my Dr's office. I would be upset also. Things going okay?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
