Today I have the side pain, too.

What can you take for the Migraine? I think I'd open my pain med bottle again.

Took 2 Maxalt Rx for migraine already...still there. Made myself get up & walk to my moms about a mile away. She had to drive me back I felt so bad. Now in bed. I hv hydrocodone that I was taking, a half a pill cut up to take edge off side pain so I could function at work but I think thats what caused the migraine. Im screwed & the ***** dr won't write me back. how is he supposed to be the post op doctor when he won't even get back with me!

I was sleeved the same day! It sounds like you are doing pretty good! I haven't been able to do a whole Protein Drink yet. I'm hoping today is the day. Have you had a BM yet? I haven't.

Yeah - I got those too! They are HUGE! I am scared to death to even try taking them - I know they said to cut or crush them, but they are still gigantic!!

      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.
