Film in the inside of my mouth



Recommended Posts

The past few days I have had a film in the inside of my mouth, things do not taste as good and brushing does nothing...It covers the whole inside of my mouth. Has any one had this? Is it a Vitamin deficiency? I will ask the doctor tomorrow about it, but I wanted to check if anyone had this before...

Sounds like it could be thrush. call your doc and theyll give you a medication that will clear it right up.

I got thrush after my surgery. That's what it sounds like to me. I took some stuff and it went away. Good luck. Keep us posted.

I just figured out last night, one week after surgery, that I have thrush also. Being as it is the weekend I had my husband pick up some gentian violet from the store and I will use this until I can call them on Monday. :(

Very likely caused by antibiotics. Sometimes something to do with gall bladder issues - your doctor will be able to help you - good luck and keep us updated

Oh yes I talked to the doctor last month and it was because of all the antibiotics so they gave me the swish stuff and it worked!

      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.
