I'm praying for you & sending positive thoughts to you, peacequeen! You need to pat yourself on the back for recognizing your danger signals and reporting them to your doctor immediately. The hospital is where you need to be to get the best care right now. I hope you heal fast and well. Stay Strong!!! :)

Thanks everyone. I've had alot of nausea, diarrhea and a uti. I was told today my urine came back positive for e. coli..the antibiotics are helping. They told me when I can go 48 hours consecutive without a fever, I could go home. I sure hope it's this weekend!

OMG, go home? How can you do that if you can't have anything by mouth for weeks?

Oh, dear - not sure how I missed this post! So sorry to hear about the leak, at least it's making sense why you were having so many problems post-op. Hope you start feeling better soon!

      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.
