Have you had a leak test yet?

I would insist for a leak test and that they keep you long enough to get your pain under control. Or send you home with something to keep the pain tolerable. Dont settle for less!

Dont give up! It's only the beginning, things will heal! Some people just take a different route in getting well. I'm healing slowly too. Yesterday was my first day since surgery (10/25) that I got all my Protein consumed...still working on my Water...

This too shall pass, stay plugged in for support and keep your chin up!!

I'm frustrated I need to find a new dr. I can't use Good Samaritan cause I owe money. Dose any one have the name and number to the dr at Miami valley hospital in Dayton oh and can you tell me if he's good my dr just won't listen to me

I have a line infection so they pulled the pic the drs will not give me anything for pain. My surgeon even came in and said you have an infection and I agree you don't need anything for pain cause there is no source if pain :0) I'm laying here crying wishing I never did this stupid surgery!! I was trying to get better not sicker and why the hell didn't I just go to Miami valley hospital instead? I warn you all make sure you trust your dr . Because he's the one that should be standing by you to get better!!

You need to contact the hospital administrator immediately!!!! They should have a care line that you can call for someone to help you.

Hopefully this helps.

      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.
