Should I get an unfill or try to wait it out?



Recommended Posts

I got my 3rd fill on friday after 8 months since my last one. :blush:

I did Clear liquids that day and pureed foods and Soups yesterday, but last night I did have some mashed potatoes because I was freaking hungry!! Well, I had one too many bites of them and ended up with that stuck feeling... and I PB'd a little.

This morning and up to now I have not been able to keep anything down. Hot tea, Water, broth... this totally sucks and I don't want to PB again. How long can I go like this? When do I call the doctor? Will it possibly calm down later today and I can just stay on Clear Liquids for a little longer?

When I had restriction last time I couldn't have much in the morning but something hot usually helped.. now I can't even have anything hot.

Let me tell you . . . I had a big problem with my last fill a couple of weeks ago. I could not even keep Water down. I kept drinking hot coffee thinking that would be okay but what I was doing (didn't know at the time) was making things spasm in there. When I finally called the doctor he told me not to drink hot or cold, then I was a little better. I did go in for a unfill after three days - boy was that a relief. I would call the doctor right away if I were you. Good luck!!

      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.
