I didn't hurt much yesterday but I overdid it today and am hurting now. My sleep apnea kept me here. Or at 68 and BP just made it over 100/60. I hope everyone else is doing good.

Surgery went well Monday -- i went home Tue night. I did have quite a lot of has pain, up high under my sternum and haven't felt very good.

The morphine caused a rash so now I'm on some other pain med -- I can tolerate Water and beef broth, I guess I'll try s//free Popsicles. Kinda feel like the flu.

Hey seattleslew. I know how you feel. I have that same pain today which I didnt hace yesterday. Im hoping it's because I slept thru a dose of meds last night. Just finished taking some meds. They took me off morphine on Monday. Whatever they been giving last longer than morphine it just takes a lil longer to kuck in. Should be going home today

Just got home from the hospital. Had to stay an extra night because of pain and blood pressure. Sore but doing ok. Never had high blood pressure before so not sure where that came from, but it came back down so all is well.

Congratulations BrendyMom! I was nervous going home in pain but waking up in my own bed made me feel better And walking/sitting up really helped the gas. Hard to eat/drink 3-4 ounces every hour - but my husband is being a good watchdog! I made myself a chart and Water tally record so I can keep myself on track. Still pretty sore and bloated though I'm getting around great! Welcome home!!

      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.
