Dehydration? I can't keep my liquids down. D:

My doctor said drink or sip what you can. He was with me when I was trying to get some chicken broth down.

If 1/6 teaspoon is all you can get down then1/6 teaspoon it will be. It is good practice eating slowly.

I was able to get more down with time. Sip, sip, sip.

Ms. Betty never called and got back to me. :( It's kinda okay though, yesterday things kinda picked up and I was able to drink more throughout the day. :) I went to the bathroom twice and it wasn't as dark as it had been. I think I'm getting better now. :)

Hey Allie! Hope you're feeling better. The dr. will give you more pain meds if you ask. Do you have the card from Mrs. Betty? It has her cell phone # on it. I had an appt today but I think they'll be out the rest of the week. Hopefully, you'll be able to reach her today!!!

I do, and I called her, then I called the nurse. The nurse said that she'd remind Ms. Betty to call me, but she didn't get around to it, I guess. I'm feeling much better now and I'm drinking more often, so I'm not going to worry about it until the 15th, my post-op appointment. :) It was scary there for a few days, but I'm all good now!

So glad you're doing well and have turned that corner. Pain medication is such a trial for the body -- all those side effects.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
