Nope. "It's normal but you can try these patches". For $176. Wah wah wah.

Gee thanks for nothing, huh? That sucks. I'm sorry. My biggest issue is a stitch sticking out. I still haven't contacted my doc but I need to. It's starting to itch and scabs over but I itch it and pick the scab because I'm itching it.

Yeah. I went to walgreens and only got 2 Patches for $23. They are kinda big so I could probably cut em in half or even quarters. But yeah. Damn!

I've heard of that! I feel like I've read that they just need to work en self out?? They hurt? That'd freak me out. Haha

Well mine doesn't hurt. So I have that going for me. Hopefully those patches work out for you. At least they let you buy a few for less than a million dollars to try.

Ok. So I've had a lidoderm patch on for about 2.5 hours. I think they might actually work. So far I've been able to get up off the couch with almost no pain! The first time since surgery. These things might be worth $176. Haha.

Disregard my pity party earlier. :)

Yes. I'm anxious to go to bed to see if I can get more than one hour of sleep at a time.

I'm so happy. I can leave it on for 12 hours and then have to wait another 12 hours to put another one on. It'll be interesting to see how the 12 hours between will go.

Anyone step on the scale get an amazing # then get off & back on again and the great # magically disappears.

I never get on the scale more than once. My scale matches my PCP's scale perfectly and never thought about it. Lol

I took 3 TBS this morning. Today is day 3 without going and I've felt like I needed to go all day yesterday. What's that saying? There I sat all broken hearted, needed to poop but only farted...

Bahahahaha. Yes! Every time. Every time I think I gotta go, it's just farts. Heh. I was going to take some more yesterday, but I have class all day today. No class tomorrow, so I'll take some later today. And maybe a dulcolax. Haha.

      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.
