December Surgeries!?!?!?



Recommended Posts

Ugh. Not excited!

I've had 3 sleep studies in the past 3mo and it's really not that bad. Not to me anyway...but I can sleep thru just about anything. Lol. Diagnosis=obstructive sleep apnea with features of narcolepsy. I'm praying I'll be able to kick my CPAP to the curb in the next few months!

OMG 3 sleep studies!!! I'm glad I didn't have a formal sleep study. I didn't have any symptoms so I just had to sleep with an pulse ox monitor at home. I brought it back and my oxygen was good all night. I don't think I could sleep during a sleep study.

      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.
