Your all really really nice and it means so much, im still nill by mouth at the moment and on Fluid drips all night and day, so i have had alot of thinking time. I am trying to be positive i did alot of crying yesturday but its 7.31am so todays a new day . :)

On a positive note my colllar bone seems more prominent i noticed in the night so thats good heeh :) I have a colonoscopy and biopsy in the next few days, im not looking forward to that!

hope your all well. im trying t keep myself busy so just looking around on here! most my comments wont make sense in between being high on pain meds and nodding off mid sentence ha .

Prayers for a great recovery. I waited, a couple weeks ago, with incredible pain -- had a very large kidney stone resulting in surgery unexpectedly. How glad we are that you got in and are going to be great. And kudos on 11 weeks!

Ouch! that must have been painful , and thank you for the kudos, i am glad i found this place as alot of people told me to go in with some other symptoms i had so im glad i listened i am really a wait it out kind of person lol hope your kidney stone is better

dreamingsmall, so glad to see your update. I've had many colonoscopies, and all I can say is "good drugs" and it's not bad at all. That being said, its normal to be a bit scared, and when you already feel punk, it's even more understandable.

You will continue to be in prayers. Healing & peace be with you!

Well that stinks. Sorry this happened on the heels of surgery. Its been in the back of my mind with all of the pretests: what if they find something wrong along the way??

Thank you all for still being with me here, not much to update, my symptoms have got worse, i wont go into them as they are gross. i am on more pain meds, they told me today they can not do the cholonoscopy yet as my bowel is to inflamed so they do not want to do it yet , i am on the surgical ward but being moved to another ward tommorow .

What is happening now could not have been found before as unfortunatly it is a new issue , I am not feeling so good if i am honest. but honestly everyone youve been so nice so i dont want my irrelevent post getting in the way of people who need support for their sleeve :)

      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.
