I see a GI specialist tomorrow and another Bariatric expert Monday.

I admire that, as rough as this is and how ill you have been, that you are positively advocating for yourself. I am keeping my fingers crossed that these next two appointments will provide better insight as to what is really happening and a clear path forward to good health for you.

Glad to hear that. Please update us as soon as you can after your appointment. Did you pick up or have a copy of your medical records sent to the GI specialist and second bariatric surgeon? It'll be really important to both of them to have a copy of your records, particularly a disk of all your radiology films, EGD results, labs etc. If you haven't done that, please do so before your apoointment tomorrow. Good luck.....

I wish I could help, but do know that I'm thinking of you and praying for the best outcome. You have a lot of wisdom here and perhaps someone else will be able to share their story with you. It's odd that the xrays didn't show anything...hang in there, a solution will be found.

I hope they figure it out. When I had a hysterectomy years ago I was not able to keep even a sip of Water down without throwing up... Doc called in a pill that I did not need to swallow :-( the next day I was eating and drinking and no problems. My hope is your complication is as easy to fix as mine was.

      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.
