I had my surgery yesterday morning and was supposed to go home today. They say I'm "borderline dehydrated" so I'll have to stay until tomorrow. That part confuses me though because I've been on nonstop fluids, drinking 1oz or more every 15 minutes, and my pee is practically clear! (sorry if tmi) my dad thinks they're milking the fact I've got two private insurances paying for all this. I just want to get home to my baby. How long were you in hospital??

I also had my surgery yesterday morning. I will be staying another night as well. The doctor said my heart rate was too high to go home. I hope you and I both get to go home tomorrow!

I was in and out in less than 24 hours, but I didn't have any complications. I was given the option to stay another night if i wanted to, but I also wanted to get home to my babies!! :)

I know it's hard to be away from your little one. But, it is also hard when you are home because you will really want to pick them up - but you can't!

A healthy mom is coming soon! Congrats on your sleeve!

48 hours for me. I was hooked up to an IV for 47 1/2 hrs of that. Guess they do things differently in Mexico.

I was in 2 nights. I had issues with pain control. I think it was finally under control as, when the doctor came in to see me about 7:30 pm on Wednesday, I was 100% convinced it was Thursday morning. He told me I was staying the night (my 2nd night) again. I had planned to anyway due to pain issues but my drugged up state secured that. :-)

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
