Trish! Remember our April 2005 Bandsters Thread? We thought it was just going to be me and you for the longest time. Now there are tons of us! We made it a year! I know it's been a tough one for you, but chin up, you are getting up and over this hump in the road and will continue your success! Hang in there, my friend. How are you?! I'm thinking of you. (((hugs)))

Oh gosh Thanks you guys! Yes this has been tough year for me. I was in the ER all night last night with a bad infection in my hole. I had a high white blood count and was put on IV Antibiotics. The ER Dr. was shocked to know that my band Dr. did not put me on antibiotics when he did the port removal and was even more shocked to learn my band Dr. was about to stitch it back up.

What a year yes. Lets see what comes up this next year. I really dont want to think about it. In all I am really scared.

Kathy- Oh yes I remember the Aril 05 thread we thought for so long we were the only ones.. then all of a sudden they all came... Thoes were really fun times.

Thanks again everyone for you thoughts and happy wishes today. This should be a day of excitement and joy, but It really is not for me. I am hanging in there and I have not broken down to to much.

((((((((((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))))))))

Aww Trish darlin my heart goes out to you. PLEASE change band docs. You actually have a case for malpractice there ya know. Even a non medical person knows that you should be put on a round of antibiotics if an infection is EVEN remotely suspected.

My invitation still stands to have you come and get an appt with Billy. I am really concerned about your health much less the band at this point. It doesn't take long for sepsis to set in.

Awww Trish I just wanna HUG you and hold your hand and tell you it will all work itself out. Please know that we all care about you.

PM or call me anytime.

      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.
