Hey ladies. Jess805 I haven't had much luck controlling my Fibro pain. I tried lyrica and it did nothing for me and I took cymbalta and it was helpful. I've been trying to get off all meds. I just take meds for sleep because I have never been a good sleeper. I take quetiapine for restless mind and nerves( it's an antipsychotic but used for many things) and I take zopiclone. Other than that it's just pacing myself, hot baths, lots of heating pads.

I'm a horrible sleeper too.... I worked almost 3 years graveyard shift because I figured I might as well make money. In the long run it was a bad idea and I take trazadone to help me sleep. My rhuemotologist is a bitch.... She attributes all my problems to my weight so I can't wait till I lose weight and can finally get to the source of my issues.... That an a new doctor might not be a bad idea! 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.
