Okay I got my update. I went to the ENT and explained everything that happened gory details and all! He said that PBing out my nose triggered a bad case of Sinusitis.... He took a scope down my nose and looked around, He also found traces of Allergies, and My Larynx was very swollen due to Acid refulx. I also have inflammed joints in my jaw from grinding my teeth and biting down to hard... He almost wanted to pass off the Sinusitis and though I might not have that... but I let him first hand take a wiff of my lovely smelly nose LOL he got a sour look on his face and said Yes that I did have Sinusitis. Im on Prednisone, Carisoprodol, Flonase, and Prevacid... I have to go have a upper GI and go see a Dr. for facial pain... I also have to have a head CT. He seemed quite worried.. but said that he will get me fixed up! WOW what a weekend I had huh!

Thanks everyone for your support and consern.. You all are a wonderful buch of people!!! If I would of waited any longer I could have done some serious damage.

Thanks again (((((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))

***im skipping school tonight to rest and soak in all that was done to me today!******

      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.
