We are all pulling for you and praying this will be resolved quickly. As we read so many success stories on this board, complications such as yours are rare. But God is watching over you and He is the ultimate healer.

Take care and sending hugs and prayers your way.

I too had issues with fluids and 3 days later back in the ER with fluids due to dehydration. The doctor then put me on a nausea patch and what a difference that made. I tell you the only thing I could keep down was popcicles. I tried some Tomato Soup last night ( 3 weeks post op) I think I will stick with my popcicles today. I hope you feel better soon. Watermellon also helped but I spit it out after I get the juice from it. Try the nausea Patches and popcicles. I think you will be surprised. Let us know.

      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.
