Wishfull, Mum seemed back to her old self yesterday, but had accidently puuled the needle out of her hand, that was feeding the saline into her. So the staff nurse stopped the drip, I think she'd had enough and they didnt want to try putting the needle in again, as her veins keep collapsing.

They just have to keep giving her loads of fluids and maybe by Friday she will be well enough to be moved to the nursing home.

Thanx for asking chick

Well maybe you should ask Freddy boy to have a word with Dr Chris, or why dont you mail him yourself, and ask if thats normal.

You have lost a good bit of weight though, havent you.

I dont know really but when I had no restriction sometimes I still pb'd if I didnt chew well enough.

Can you eat large meals?

This is just a suggestion, how about if everyone put their banding date in their sig

Is it only me that cant remember everyone's banding date?

Just go to the user cp, top left of the page and look for signature.

You can put text in there like I have in mine.

:smile2:Hi everyone!..i still have a lot of restriction yes..on curry night i had about half a popadom with mint yoghurt sauce, and it was getting really uncomfortable. i only had about 2 teaspoons of curry sauce, no meat for main meal, no way could i have had any naan bread..i havent been able to tolerate any bread from day 1. i then had some egg custard which i made quite sloppy, that went down ok..sunday, i managed mashed carrot and turnip with plenty of gravy, but mash potato, infact any potato is very uncomfortable. i could manage some easter egg after though!...im gonna have to watch my chocolate intake cos i am a chocoholic and it goes down very easily.. I dont know if this restriction will ease now,but if it doesnt i wont be having another fill for a month at least, ill just spend some time getting used to this and see if i get any weight loss results from it. Hope everyone else is doing ok anyway x

That sounds like you're on your way Gillian...brilliant, now the next step has gotta be, that you can only manage the half of popadum and then youre full, so you dont want any afters.

Thats what I shall be aiming for, but make sure you keep taking the vits as you dont want to get run down.
