watchout4thebiggurl 5 Posted August 1, 2013 Did you ever hear back? I had that about 3 days after my surgery' date=' lasted about 3 days, I put caladryl on it, that helped. Not sure what caused it and it has not recurred since.[/quote'] My PCP gave me an anti fungal cream with a steroid in it and it cleared up in about a week. She was concerned though because my rash had a dark tinge to it. And later all of that dead skin peeled off. She also told me that I had thrush. Thanks for asking!

watchout4thebiggurl 5 Posted August 1, 2013 I had it was told to take Benadryl by ARNP. Got some liquid took it a couple of nights and it was gone. Benedryl didn't help. I went to my PCP and she ended up giving me an antifungal cream with a steroid. It worked! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
watchout4thebiggurl 5 Posted August 1, 2013 Here are my stats: HW-295 SW-283 on 6-17-13 CW: 256 I Just weighed myself and I gained 3lbs in the last 3 days after being stalled for a while. Is none else starting to experience this? Are there typical weeks for stalls? I think I remember hearing something about stalling around 3-6 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KenneKat 12 Posted August 1, 2013 Have you tried Prilosec? I thought I was starving! Someone said to try it and it really helps. I wasn't hungry, my tummy was upset. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SheWins1 207 Posted August 1, 2013 Hi I was sleeved on 6/24 and I thought about ways to get in adequate amounts of Protein. I did Protein in the sf pudding and mixed it really well and put them In 1/4 cup containers and froze them they are delicious. Lol it really took a half hour to eat too. Good luck Did you put a scoop of powder for each serving? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nadiyyah 36 Posted August 1, 2013 Did you put a scoop of powder for each serving? No because the scoops are big it is 41 grams Protein. I put about a 1/4 scoop in each pudding and mixed it really good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nursebarbie 392 Posted August 1, 2013 Saw my surgeon yesterday. Suggested 1 oz pickle juice twice a day. No more frothing or heart burn and zero nausea! She also scheduled upper GI to check for strictures. I bought Syntrax Nectar today lemon tea flavor. Can be mixed directly in 2 to 4 oz of Water and taken as a shot. I was able to tolerate that amazingly well. Will definately buy the lemonade flavor next. Being able to get Protein in basically a "shooter" is a godsend for me. I get super full on 2 oz of anything including liquid. Surgeon was concerned because I am in starvation mode and dehydrated again. Just so nauseated and full all the time. With the addition of Pickle Juice or even sucking on a pickle has made all the difference in the world. I didn't even bother with any nausea meds or reglan today. Today is my birthday and I weighed in at 197. So I made my goal. Very happy about that. I bought size 16 shorts! Was in a 22 before. Amazing! Best gift to myself ever! 8 Corky6984, julia7665, nursesettie and 5 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
