Recommended Posts

Ok, so tonite my left shoulder started hurting really badly. My face started grimacing and hands started contraacting. Called my nurse and asked if I could have a leak. Im starting to panic at this point. She said she didn't think so cuz my temp was 98.1. I tried to relax but my muscles kept getting aall tight. I couldn't relax my face or fingers. Hubby wants to take me to the er. On my way, I felt like I was gunna explode. Thoughtt I wa having a stroke. They met me at the car with a wheellchaair and I got right in. They thougtht it might be an electrolyte imballance. Took blood. They asked me iff I took Reglan. Why, yes I do. Since my tues sleeve.

They gave me drugs to xountract it and im already feelingg much better. I can finally relaax.

So warning: iif u hqve severe muscle pain and congarctions, u may have a drug reaction

I'm so glad you went to the ER. Did your doctor give you Reglan for heartburn? I'm happy you're better.

He gave me Reglan for my stomach. Not sure why - it's used for nausea, but I also have Zofran for that. I take Pepcid for heartburn too.

No more of that for me tho! Wow. It was really scary - I couldn't control my hands and face...

      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.
