911 - DeLarla goes to the Emergency Room

I've had horrible pains in my lower right abdomen. It started as a light pinch a few weeks ago, but yesterday the pain was becoming unbearable. The kind of pain that takes your breath away. I made an OBGYN appointment for next week, but yesterday my friends freaked me out thinking it could be an ovarian cyst, an eptopic pregnancy or a gallbladder attack. The more I fretted, the worse the pain got.

I ran to Urgent Care and had a pelvic exam. Diagnosis = GAS.

What a dork. I had a glass of wine and farted so I'm fine now. Thought you'd all enjoy a good laugh.

You need to change your name to Drama Queen or Comedy Queen one. You are too much, I usually get that gas pain on my left side. Have you tried that Gas-X yet, LOL?

I would have tried Gas-X if someone would have suggested gas!

I had the same fierce pains on the left side the day after surgery. You should have seen the look on the Urgent Care doctor's face as I tried explaining there's a tube shoved in my abdominal wall and "I SWEAR, that's not what's causing this evil pain."

Delarla~ Next time try Gas -X first or just drink the wine first.

ROFLMAO TOO! Did you know it hurts to laugh after you get your gallbladder removed. LAUGHTER IS THE BEST MEDICINE THANKS!!!

Lisa- that sucks!!!

The first time I had a gas attack I thought I was having a baby. And I hadn't had sex in like a year, so I thought maybe I was the next Virgin Mary. Yeah right...God's gonna pick me to be Mom to his next kid.

Now when I get it I take the Gas X chewables and lie in a fetal position singing "you are my sunshine" and breathing like I am in labor until it goes away.

So you guys understand the kind of pain I'm talking about? This ain't no cramping, this feels like lightening bolts slicing through my girly region. I couldn't stand up without grabbing onto the wall. So I got to blow a wad of dough and ruin my 3-day weekend. It's either hide in the closet in shame or laugh at myself! Who-da thunk that Gax-X would have worked?

Maybe next week I'll rush to the ER for a pimple.

      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.
