I'm doing fine (Female stuff)



Recommended Posts

I'm home, Today I went in and had a D+C. Dh is a real trooper, he has me settled in at home. He needs to go out and handle a service call, but I have A pepsi (I'm not banded yet) and pain pills at my side. Teen age kids are home now to. I was told to take it easy and stay off my feet for two days. Everything went pretty well, no fibroids or tumors but tons of unexpected tissue. Dr told husband we will talk options in two weeks lasar treatments for starters, We'll cross that bridge then. Meanwhile I feel pretty good. Thank-you for your support. I really hope none of this will interfer with getting the lap band I have no date yet we are still going through the preauthorization process.

Shamrock, glad that went well and no serious problems were found. Take it easy for a bit and let the family spoil you.

My D&C wasn't as painful as having my period every two weeks with killer cramps and heavey flow. (I'm a space alien with multiple chambers in my uterus. When I got pregnant with my son, all the extra chambers acted like they were preggers too...)

P.S. I had 2 D&C's myself and neither one was painful. I think the only thing that was hurt was my pride. (had to have them due to miscarriages)

      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.
