I trust everything will go smoothly...please keep up posted!  Happy re-birthday!

I just got done reading your post and this is exactly what happened to me.  I started my 3 day clear liquid pre-op on Saturday the 15th.  I woke up with an "I want to die" migraine. I called Dr. Chae to make sure I could take the liquid tylenol.  Not that it helped much.  It made my stomach feel terrible.  I don't know if I have any words of wisdom but I had the exact same feelings as you!  You're not alone....I guess this is what is referred to as the Lap band Hell weeks.......I'll say...and it's only day 2!  Tomorrow must be your surgery day, I'll be thinking of you.  Hope it goes well. 

So I posted this on the main board, but wanted the opinions of all my friends here in CO.  Let me know what you think - please.

Today is the first day of my pre-op 3 day liquid diet.  I woke up with a migraine so it was making me sick to my stomach.  Wasn't sure if I could take anything so I called my surgeon's office and he said I could take Tylenol or my Rx Imitrex.  So Tylenol it was, well on an empty liquid diet only stomach I got even sicker.  I was drinking beef broth - going for some flavor- well there was none and I think the taste was adding to my nausea.  I did not have any Imitrex so I went to pharmacy to get some, came home from work early, took one in hopes of not vomiting - as I often do even with a stomach full of food.  I fell asleep on the couch and am feeling better.  But I am hungry, am eating sugar free popsicles and that seems to relieve some of the hunger but not for long.  Any suggestions on how to get through the next few days on liquids only?  Hopefully my migraine does not come back.  The only thing I can think of is how long it will be before I can eat actual foods again, is this so wrong?  Just need a little affirmations from the rest of you that this too shall pass and the long run is much worth it.   Signed,  Hungry (Jennifer)

Thanks someone already called and gave me the information and I will be attending.  Thanks Again, David
