Recommended Posts

Tomorrow is the big day. I am preparing for tomorrow. butterflies. I am the first in my family and so this is uncharted waters. I will be up getting ready at 3:30am to go to the hospital. Praying for a quick release those around me are falling apart. You know women take care of everybody and it gets hard to fight for the time to make your life better.

I was banded june 1st.... Good luck to u! Make sure u have ur gas-x medicine as it will help tremendously with the gas pain. Walk even when u dont feel like u can, it will also make things easier. Do Not rush ur healing! Take this time for u to get better. I did, and was down for extra days. Allow the ones u take care of on a daily basis to take care of u..:o) everyone heals at a differant rate...good luck!

Had the surgery this morning at 7:30, doing pretty well. Have been up walking a few times, the Percocet helps the pain a lot. I do have gas pains in my shoulder though, any suggestions?

Where did you have it done? I'm at Beth Israel in Boston,MA. I guess all drs are different. I'm not too impressed with the hospital at this moment, they asked me to bring my cpap machine and here it is 10:30 and respiratory hasn't even hooked it up yet.

I'm afraid that I have an infection by the port. It's only been 5 days since my surgery and the steri strips are still on. My skin is pink around the area. My fiancé thinks its an allergic reaction to the tape that was used. Has anyone else had this problem?

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
