Ok. I am sorry this is happening to you. Please call your doctor right away or go to the ER. I have read through all your posts and it sounds like you really need help. Please. This is dangerous for you.

Or gallbladder, or appendix or a hernia, or Constipation. But I agree with other posters, go to the ER!

go talk to your on-call doctor or the place that did your surgery. better to err on the side of keeping the peace.

And you really do need to ponder what you can do to get your head in the game. I guarantee that string cheese or crackers are a LONG way out after surgery, no matter how much you want (or believe you) need them. I am not worried about the sleeve. I am worried about you. Please keep us posted.

      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?

      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.
