Telford Princess Royal - anyone been here?



Recommended Posts

I'm thinking about getting the sleeve done at Princess Royal with Dr Sigurdsson. Has anyone had their surgery here?

Whilst I was in the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital for the Gastric Sleeve procedure; the lady in the next bed to me had the same surgery and her consultant was Mr Sigurdsson. He was very professional and attentive . My surgeon was Mr Rink . If you,ve been offered surgery at Telford, take it hon! One things for sure.. no two surgery experiences are the same. Ive stayed in touch with the lady I met in the hospital and we share and exchange our experiences so far. I had a really rough time right after surgery , but she was sipping hot chocolate drink on the evening of her surgery!!! I couldnt even keep a sip of Water down for two days and had terrible retching. Since the initial few days ive been fine, but my friend has had a few problems ( fairly common ones associated with the surgery ) . What I would say to you is this.. if you are offered the procedure go for it! It,s not without its negatives but the positives FAR out-weigh those. Good luck. x :-)

Hi, I am 5 days post op. Had my surgery in Telford with Mr Sigurdsson. He is very proffessional! He explains everything in detail and always welcomes questions. He is a great choice! When are you thinking of having it?

      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.
