Hi, I am new here I had VSG surgery in May 2010 and just took a digital home pregnancy this morning and it was positive!! I'm freaking out and I don't really believe it, has anyone ever had false positive results?? Could I really be preg???

Normally "false positives" are very early pregnancies that just didn't take, so they were not falsely positive, they just didn't take..

I've been trying to get pregnant for years, many $ and tears to not be so..

Congratulations! Go get another one to make sure (i never trusted just one). Your Dr. can order blood test right away. Yeah for you!!

Thanks, I called the doctor right away this morning and he just kind of said well, I'm sure it's true just keep taking your Vitamins and I'll see you on the 31st for your first appointment...I really wanted him to do a blood test. I have been trying to get pregnant for 6 years and I too have spent tons of money and tons of tears!!! So I am really anxious about this!! I think I will go buy another test and take it in the morning. I know me though and I won't be satisfied until I actually see and hear the heart beat. Trying not to get to excited but can't help it!! I just can't believe it said "pregnant"!! I'm almost afraid to take another one what if it says not pregnant!!

Congrats! I know you're eager for a blood test confirmation, but three tests won't lie! Take care of yourself and have a great doctor's visit on the 31st.

      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.
