Topic: One Month Post Op
One month out and I am feeling good have achieved a lot in this month. A lot of craziness but also a lot of goodness to. I can finally get out of my bed without rolling out of it. I can get up my stairs without being winded and most of all I am not retaining water like I use to. Feels so good not to be feeling like I am going to split open anymore. I hope all other February Surgery Buddies are doing great as well.
~Stay Blessed and I wish you all another successful month~

Topic: RE: 4 days out w/ some complications
I had surgery 2/25 too. I didn't have the complications. But, I too have had a low grade fever and a cough. I was told not to worry unless it hits 101 and the cough is natures way of clearing your lungs. It helps prevent pneumonia and blood clots in the lungs.
Topic: nausea
Hi every one! I was banded on 2/25. For the last three days I've started getting nausea about 5:30 pm. I haven't been able to consume all that the NUT says I am suppose to. Last night the nausea got really bad. I'm wearing a transderm patch and took the meds for it to. Jus****ching the food commercials on TV was making it worse. So, I turned off the TV and went to be. As soon as I laid down, my mouth started filling with acid. You know that feeling/taste just before you throw up? I held my mouth over my mouth and ran to the bathroom. I spit out what was in my mouth and it looked like plain water. But, after I spit it out I felt fine. I didn't even throw up. Does anyone know what happened? Why I'm getting nausea now and not the first two nights.
Topic: RE: Constipation
I read about benefiber too...I'm hoping it doesn't taste gross because I have a hard enough time choking down my fluids.

I hope your feeling better. I have had dumping and all a few times. I am still learning when I am full and all. It's crazy one minute my stomach has all these rumble sounds next minute I feel like I am ill. I have gone back to two shakes a day and some reg protein. I got my kids chinese food tonight and I got myself some chowmein meatless thinking yeah veggies soft cool ah no I wont be going there for a long time again.Feeling the craziness for over seven hours now. So take your time experiment but not with crazy foods.

Topic: RE: first oh no
Hi!! I tried another canned fish tonight. Salmon. It was yummy. No noises or complaints from the pouch. I liked it better than the tuna. You are right. The tuna does not taste the same any more. Everything is different. I love my sf fudgesicles. They taste like a little bit of heaven. I have an extra box hidden in the garage. My 4 kids are know for leaving the empty box in the freezer. I think I would cry. LOL over a 40 cal popsicle. It's a whole new ballgame.

Interesting information. I would have never thought of that, but will be careful of sorbitol.
