Do you think this is band related? You didn't say even if you were banded...it makes it kinda hard to know where to start. Especially since I know I am not smarter than all the Dr.'s you have already seen!

You might consider a teaching hospital, I understand they are a good option if a diagnosis is hard to come by. They give you maximum exposure to multiple physicians in multiple fields all in one place.

I hope you find the cause for your problems soon. Good Luck. If you are banded, by all means keep that surgeon in on the loop!!!

Wow you sure have been through a lot. Have you been to your band Dr?

Sorry I can't suggest anything to help.

Nope. Few here are doctors, and even those who are, aren't *your* doctor.

If you haven't tried your PCP start there, or find a good doctor to start with. If you're banded, let your band surgeon know what's happening.

Have you had a scope (EGD)? If you are banded it could be signs of erosion. I agree that you need to see your dr. asap.

You really need to see a doctor for a diagnosis. This is a gastric band support forum. If you aren't banded and it isn't band related you're really in the wrong place. We offer ideas, support, and motivation here, but only a licensed physician can officially diagnose a medical condition. My only suggestion is to see your doctor, and if you're having head pain with this perhaps you should see a neurologist. The symptoms sound serious and painful, I'm sorry you're having such a hard time. Hopefully you'll get some answers soon. Good Luck and keep us posted, I'm curious about what your doctor thinks it might be.

      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.
