The surgeons nurse called today and gave me my results. I have a stomach infection and it will be treated with antibiotics. It has to clear up or I can't have surgery. Anyone have this issue with their stomach? In process have mental evaluation and nutrition class. Hopefully not classes. But now this is slowing me down. At least be healthy and they can go forth with my surgery. I was reading from taking arthrites meds and could be caused by radiation. They found a spot on my breast so every 6mths I was being exposed to radiation. Also since I was 38 I have been taking Arthrites meds and I am now 54. So hopefully the antibiotics will clear it all up.

Keeping you in my prayers🙏that it smooths out, you get good enough to have your surgery, and that you won't have to wait much longer. Was it h pylori or something else? Some,people on here said it took a while for h pylori to heal and it is very common in the General Population these days. I haven't had it, a miracle with everything else that I have had.

I don't know I will have to ask them. I think it is just gastritis and they don't want it to make an ulcer. She just called and said it was a stomach infection. Thanks for prayers Frustr8!

      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.
