I just got out of the hospital last night. I am still in excruciating pain 1 month later. They never did a 3rd surgery but they did have to drain some liquid from my pelvic region. I don't know why they sent me home. I am In so much pain I can only lay on my back. I feel all twisted up inside. I feel like I am dying.

Sooo sorry...praying for you.

Maybe it's time to go to another dr in another facility and get a second opinion? You should be feeling better by now. (Hugs) my thoughts are with you.

See, this is the situation that we all have worried about. There are some doctors that have no busy doing this type of surgery. This is a damn shame that you have to go through this and for the length of time you have had this pain, they ought to be ashamed of themselves!

I'll bet money they won't forget to send you a hospital bill.

Sounds like you need a new doctor who've had alot of experience in this type of surgery and the complications.

      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.
