Something in my sleeve....



Recommended Posts

My stomach doesn't look anything like that. Very smooth and straight. I'm thinking some fundus left behind. :( let us know what it is. Very concerned.

Hi,

I saw the dr Friday. I also had another upper gi that indicated things are the same. Ulcer over leak site, masses in sleeve. Also showed that my sleeve empties slow.

I still vomit frequently and I am learning to adjust to this new normal. Dr said to give it a year. So I am half way there!!! Masses should go away, vomiting should be considerably less if not diminished. Labs show I not absorbing Vitamins like I should be. So I am still using injectable a that I administer at home.

Drinking and eating is painful. Yes, even Water. The dr said to drink Smart Water because it will go down easier. She was right and this means I am better able up stay hydrated, which is super important given that I have developed kidney stones through my leak.

Honesty, I am not sure what to think of these masse and just waiting it out. In a way I worry, but I am also SO tired of everything.

Trying to stay focused and give all my positive energy to the "good" in this process

Thank you for all the love and support. :)

      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.
