I had sleeve surgery June 26. I've been to the er or been admitted to the hospital.

First visit - Get sleeved

Week after pain. My pancreas' date=' gallbladder, ans liver.

The next week shortness of breath. I had to get a blood transfusion.

All the other visits can't keep anything down. Er your levels are high. All we can do is give you meds.

My surgery doctor give me gallbladder meds.

He got all the reports from er visit. All er visits said my gallbladder needs to come out.

Today it came out. My husband said they the doc told him they removed 200 pebble looking gallstones.

I don't regret WLS.

God is a healer. Im still in the hospital[/quote']

Update

The upper GI test went well. Nothing else was wrong praise God. My doctor put me back on liquid diet. Im healed. I feel great. I got out the hospital last night. I was able to drink the required amount of liquids. The hardest part was the Iv. My arms are purple and red. All the IV 's every week made it hard for the nurses to stick me. The nurse had to put the IV in my hand. Talking about pain. The iv fluids and pain meds hurt going in. I lost a lot weight. The lady in the bank last week did not even recognize me.

My goal is to drink my 64 of Water and get my Protein in. I use the unflavored Protein from GNC. It has 21 grams of protein. I mix it with applesauce. I downloaded a few workout .

Sleeve friends

Dont let a major setback still your joy.

Never give up!!!! You can do it!

      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.
