I was told that your surgeon had to cut thru muscle to remove your stomach at the site. That's what that part continues to hurt after the other sites have healed up.

I seemed to pull something on the lower left side. Called doc and he said I should get better every day. I did but it keeps coming back so I'm having a ct tomorrow.

Surgery was the 19th of August. It is over an hour away so I'm having my whole stomach area especially since pain can radiate.

The huge problem is that I'm allergic to iodine so I have to start taking steroids at 1:30 am. 8 of them actually. And another 8 two hours before they start giving it to me.

My husband said pack a bag you maybe staying over night, he doesn't want me to go through it but I need to know what is going on. I HATE steroids they make me blow up like a Macy day balloon. Plus who know what my stomach is going to say and how long everything will stay down. But I will let you know what they come up with.

      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.
