I've been super sick with a kidney infection... High fevers and vomiting.. Took in 10 or so oz of Water yesterday and so far about the same today.. Sipping but vomiting and gave to be careful... Is it more dangerous being 3 1/2 weeks out from surgery than any other time? Haven't eaten either, but know that's Ok for a few days. Should I bother the surgeon with this question?

Yes you should contact your surgeon you might have a leak

Does the doc who diagnosed your kidney infection know you were just sleeved? Someone should be concerned with your hydration and be monitoring you very closely. Did they rule out a leak when they ruled in your kidney infection?

Contact your dr.. This isn't a minor concern

I called my dr last night because I'm 2 weeks 4 days post op and I'm running fever. It goes up & down. 100.0-101.9. I have no pain anywhere at all. The dr told me if my temp went between 102-103 to go to ER but other than that to sip Water & Gatorade.

He asked did I follow orders or had I cheated. I told him that I could honestly say that I followed the diet without cheating at all.

      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.
