My Dr prescribed Roxicet (liquid percocet) and Zofran for nausea.

I was prescribed hyrocodone and promethazine suppositories (eww) I really don't want to do that. But I guess if I have to I will.

I was given the suppositories & I didnt use them, but when I got really sick with the flu the doc said to use them. So I did & they were great. Dare I say I'm wishing I had more lol.

I had unbilical and hiatal hernia fixed at the same time. I am convinced this made my surgery much worse. I am coming up on day 5 post op and I still have trouble getting up, etc.

I had a hiatal hernia repair with the lap band and even though I had belly pain and shoulder pain from the surgical gas I knew moving around is what makes u feel better. So I walked, VERY SLOWLY at first then increased the amount of time and the gas pain and pressure really did ease. Good luck I hope u feel better!

      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.
