RnY 10 years ago... back to where I started...



Recommended Posts

Hey there! New to the forum, not new to the WLS world.

Having an EGD tomorrow to check the status of my anasthemosis and to see if a revision is in order. (Truth: I am HOPING for a revision.)

I am currently doing <1200 cals; +65 protein; <25 sugar; standard Vitamins and calcium citrate.

Anyone have a RnY revision ? Any EGD advice? I had one previously but it was during another (bigger) procedure so I don't know what the after was like.


Thanks a million! Looking forward to getting to know you all.

Tina

I had my EGD last Wednesday. It was the best sleep I've had in years!!!! I blinked twice after they gave me meds and then woke up in recovery. They did a biopsy of my lower stomach because I had some redness. My throat was a little scratchy up until the next morning and had some nausea. But nothing major at all. I went home and slept until 4 PM and then went back to sleep at 10!! No problems at all.

Thanks for this! I'm a teacher (high school) and am planning to return to school Thursday. I was worrying that talking thru my mask (which already isn't great on my throat) was going to be a disaster.

I work with the school district as well. I had no problems returning the next day. I had so much anxiety about it. And everyone kept telling me it was nothing to it. They were right.

Hope all works out! I had two EGD-a month apart . Biggest side effect was I slept so good after getting home. Was happy the next day was Saturday. Sore throat was worse on the second one. I am a revision patient. Sleeve to DS

      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.
