Ladyvm...sorry to hear this. Will your lung heal and will you still have your sleeve surgery or do you have to avoid further surgery due to your anatomy and adhesions? Hopefully you heal quickly.

What do you mean? Are you a transposition? How did they puncture a lung? Were they fixing a hiatal hernia? Lungs and stomach are in two separate cavities unless you have a hernia. Why were there adhesions? Did you have previous surgeries?

She could possibly have situs inversus or situs ambiguus.... Which causes the normal arrangement of organs to be out of place. Or her surgeon could of just F'd up. I think the latter because it would seem like a doctor would have told her about the former a long time ago.

Well she said her organs are in the wrong place. I am just surprised that no doctor (if you go to the doctor or hospital) has ever caught this. And don't the doctors use a camera when performing the surgery? They should of caught it before they punctured your darn lung.

I pray everything works out for you and that your lung is healed.

      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.
