i agree with tiffany. ask your dr. because all dr.'s make you stop smoking prior to surgery and insist that you do not smoke agian!

my dr. made me promise that i would never smoke again and would not do RYN surgery on me because i had been a smoker!! he was that strict! he said that if i did ever smoke again, he would stop being my dr.!!

to each their own, but i would ask!

just my opinion!

I have a prescription for medical marijuana for nerve pain and spasms.Sometimes it is the only thing that helps, thught I do not use it often.My pain management doctor knows about it. I expect to do without for quite some time after my surgery- it will be worth it! Ultimately losing the weight is something I hope will lessen my need for pain meds of any kind. Certainly of fentanyl, dilaudid, and pot, all of which I use, the pot is the most gentle!

Meg,

thank you for posting this. I think people forgot that medicinal marijuana is in use. I too have a nerve disorder but MM is not approved in my state. Sometimes I wish it were, because the drugs they have me on are pretty strong and leave me loopy. I am hoping the weight loss with help me as well. Good luck

Kinky,

Why couldn't he just munch on low carb Snacks??? (Think: beef Jerky, SF pops, turkey roll ups) The munchies shouldn't scare you if you are prepared with high Protein, low carb options.

Just a thought.
