9 Days Out And Getting Frustrated With Myself..



Recommended Posts

Okay so here's the thing. I was sleeved on Monday, July 30th and everything has been normal. Been fine, feeling great despite the gas pain and etc. Went to my post-op yesterday and was cleared to bring in some pureeds. Left there and went out with family to have Breakfast and decided to try an egg. Went down fine and seemed okay. Then as the day progressed, started to have killer chest and stomach pain. Checked online and it said most likely gas pain. Then out of no where I was overcome with chills to a point where I had to put on sweats, socks,under shirt, and sweat shirt...and still get under two blankets. Went to bed with 99.3 and then woke back up around 2 a.m.with a temp of 101.1!! Took some of the layers off and seemed okay. Have been on Heparin shots until yesterday so wondering if anyone else has had anything like this happen? Keep in mind I live in Ga so putting on all that clothes has everyone else thinking I'm crazy....

I'm wondering if you were getting ill already and the egg had little to do with it?

Sounds like you got a little bug of some sort...

Is your drain and everything out and incisions looking good? Sounds like an infection to me. I was sleeved on the same day and tried egg, too. Didn't work out well for me, either. However, I don't think you would have fever and chills from eating the wrong thing. My doctor says to call him for a temp of over 100........

I ate an egg on pureed and felt fine but then I was told by my Physician Assistant technically egg was considered "soft" food not pureed so I'm waiting until Monday (my 4 weeks) to do it again.

Everything but the fever is in line with it not "being time."

WOW, this is the same thing tht happened to me last night. I had my surgery on Aug 13th so I shouldn't have even attemted and egg. But I ate the white part of of boiled egg and chewed it really well. Then about an hour later I had chills so bad I ws shaking violently. My husband put 3 blankets on me and I still couldnt stop. It hurt bc I was so tensed up. He took my temp and sd I didnt have a fever but I was so scared. Then an hour later I warmed back up after taking my pain medicine. I dont know what it was but it was scary.

I would definitely call your doctor to at least make sure they're aware of it - fever can be a sign of infection/leak. It's probably just a bug/gas, but it's better safe than sorry and this way at least they're aware of it. Feel better soon!

      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.
