Hmmm.. well, I'd give the PPI time to work, appropriate dose, appropriate eating habits and if that does not work then you need some testing. Aren't you coming here in the next few months to see your Dad? If so, we can take a trip to Mexicali for a barium swallow. That's $75/$80. Then if you need an endo he can tell you from there.

That would be so wonderful! I just checked with my dr.'s office today and an upper GI is around $1,500.00 That's ridiculous. If I am careful not to eat anything after dinner, I am fine. I am going to be careful until I can get down there. I am not shelling out $1,500 bucks.

I know I am not too tight. I can eat anything. I never pb or slime. I don't do this often because I don't want to gain weight, but when my kids went to pizza, I ate one piece with no trouble. If I were tight, that would have been impossible. I remember when I was tight before I got an unfill and two bites of pizza had me hanging over the toilet for an hour.

I generally come in Feb. The weather there is perfect in Feb. In March, my allergies go insane and January the weather is just like the weather here. When I go down there, I like warm days!

I have been declared the Queen of Cosmos on another board. I just want to mention that in case we start handing out alcohol titles here. :wink2:

Can you wait that long?

I hope so! It's not an every day problem. I can go for weeks without a problem unless I eat something right before bedtime which I should not be doing anyway.

Wimpy! I'll abdicate "Mr. Margarita" in favor of "Mr. Any vodka-based cocktail".

I used to put Jello instant pudding ( just a little bit) into my Protein Shakes to make them taste better. I thought the cheese cake flavor was

pretty good in the vanilla ones.

      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.
