Rhyzell 70 Posted July 2, 2013 I did that. The metallic taste is over the top. I'm muddling through but I think Santana Claus is gonna owe me a really good present this year because I'm really trying to be good with my needs. Lol! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hautechic13 41 Posted July 2, 2013 HELP!!!!! Since I woke up from surgery I have been itching uncontrollably...it hasn't been my incisions so much as all around & my upper thigh...@ first I though it was a reaction to coming off all the meds but it seems to be getting worse & I'm breaking out in these red blotches... The only time it subsides is if I take Benadryl but I can't take this forever!! Has anyone else had this issue? I placed a call in & waiting for a response but I'm one step away from googling & then there is no telling how freaked out I will get!! Please if anyone has any experience with this or advice I would greatly appreciate it!! Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kristlynngirl 184 Posted July 2, 2013 Morning everyone. Still sore from surgery #2 yesterday. My surgeon said it was one of the worst cases of scar tissue he's ever soon and I should immediately be better. Hard to tell right now, waiting on a repeat upper GI before I can drink or eat anything. Just on ice chips right now. Thanks for your prayers! 3 Rhyzell, bonnielee and Weight Warrior reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deaddemmama 474 Posted July 2, 2013 Someone in my support group mixes chocolate Protein Powder with Peanut Butter and swears it tastes like a reeses...I'm not a chocolate fan so I haven't tried it. She only has it about once a week, I guess and it takes her days to eat it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rhyzell 70 Posted July 2, 2013 On Wednesday I'll be 4 weeks post op. I had foot surgery two weeks after my bypass and had been doing well with it and walking well. Everything was going good with my bypass until I got a stricture 2 1/2 weeks out and had it dialated friday. Then yesterday i went to the gym' date=' had a good workout. When I got home and got out the car I fell and damaged my foot bad enough to need 6-12 more weeks off from work. And I have to say I have never been as fatigued as I am now on crutches. I have been on them before with no problem and I was much heavier than I am now. I don't want to leave the house at all... it has to be from the surgeries. Tomorrow I get to go get my esophagus dialated again.... I think I need to start this week over![/quote'] EGADS! Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk I was told the itching is from all the gas they fill you with leaving your body. I was so itchy all over for the first couple of days. Warm shower helped a lot.
