Visit With My Surgeon

Still have a hose in my nose.  He wants me to exclusively hydrate through that (48 oz a day up my nose) and to take 1 protein shake down the snout too.  He has me crushing Reglan 4 times a day, and another anti-nausea pill.  He thinks if I can avoid inflamation over the next couple days it might straighten out.  If not, he will call Thursday to schedule a band removal for Friday.

Bexie, whether you keep your band or have to have it removed, my thoughts are with you.

Very best wishes, Kate.

Highest 290, Banded - 248   Lowest 139 (too thin!). Comfort zone 155-165.

Happily banded since May 2006.  Regain of 28lbs 2013-14.  ALL GONE!

But some has returned! Up to 175, argh! Off we go again,

So sorry to hear about your rough recovery. Thanks for keeping us updated. I don't think I've posted on your previous threads, but I always read and keep you in my thoughts.

I hope things improve for you sooner rather than later whether you keep the band or not.

Hang in there the best you can!
Lindsey

I've been thinking about you all day Bexie.

I hate you have a snoot tube (you are such a trooper!  I'd be gagging like nobody's business!), but hopefully that and the Reglan will calm everything down for you.

Hang in there and I'm keeping my fingers crossed your tummy copes with its anger management issues and starts behaving!!!

Feel better soon!

Turns out Reglan knocks me out. I took it and an hour later I was out lke a light. Slept just long enough so that it was time for my next dose. I will have to try to put the protein shake down tomorrow. I still have 40oz of water to go in the next 30 mins (not gonna happen).
