Glad you made it to the hospital and as Kathy said that is too bad about another surgery to fix the bleeding, but I'm certainly glad they were able to go fix what was wrong. Also great news that your staple line is in excellent shape.

I hope the road to recovery is much easier from here on out.

Andrew, during my surgery my spleen started bleeding and I needed a blood transfusion. Thankfully it was during the surgery and not after so I didn't need a 2nd surgery like you, but my recovery has been totally uneventful. I'm 8 months post op, 73 lbs down with only 9 left until goal. I promise thinks will only get better from here!

Thank you to everyone for your concern and positive thoughts. I'm told that I'm healing well and will go home tomorrow.

The surgeon could not find the source of the bleeding as it had stopped by the time he went in there. He checked my spleen and staple line and all good.

Trying to keep a positive attitude but I'm having some difficulty. I was so positive post op for 4 days.

      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.
