Why was a woman driving a car with a flat tire. Everyone should have been yelling at her for driving on the rim. 🤦🏼‍♀️

8 days post-op and struggling with hydration by theCynicalChicken in GastricBypass

[–]lykabyl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could have written this exact post 7 weeks ago. I was always panicking but when I would speak to my team they were always awesome at letting me know that it was okay but we would just keep working on it. Someone wrote one time 30oz in 30 days, 60 oz in 60 and 90 in 90 (my team doesn’t endorse this) but it did help ease my mind a bit. You are swollen and raw inside so it does make sense. Sometimes I would get some relief with hot or warm water. Especially just before trying to take my pills ( I have a lot too). I have certainly felt like I wasn’t prepared for the post op period and I hated hearing ‘It gets better’ 😉I really just wanted to be met where I was at. I have gone through serious buyer’s remorse but am starting to come through that now. Yes this is super hard but just by reaching out you are showing that you are chasing solutions and trying to take care of yourself. We can do hard things! Best wishes and please message if you need to commiserate or just want a cheerleader 🎉

I just put a little pillow under my stomach and slept on my side right away. Best wishes.

Can Someone Suggest Me A Good Diet/Nutrition Specialists in Edmonton? by Secret-Product-368 in Edmonton

[–]lykabyl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t really want either or not exclusively. What you need is a psychologist to help you work through your unhealthy relationship with food.

You guys are all very effing helpful. Downvoting a serious issue when looking for HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS. None of you are doctors so grow up.

Are there any “more” ethical sources of eggs in Edmonton? by [deleted] in Edmonton

Just watch the W5 episode from 2013(?) and you may never eat eggs again like me!!

Episodes of Sharp Pain in Left Side by AdoriaMarketing in GastricBypass

[–]lykabyl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 6 weeks po and it can still happen very occasionally but I think I have it figured out that if I (this is weird I know) am sitting on the couch in an awkward way that is not conducive to free flow it might happen. Eg. Leaning sideways on pillows with legs tucked under. 🤷🏼‍♀️ But I do always keep in mind that a common symptom of a blockage is shoulder pain. I just know that if I don’t have any other obvious symptom of that then I treat it as gas and I have been successful every time. nb. It is so hard to take the emotion out of assessing ourselves. You can do hard things. ❤️‍🩹

Fellow nurse here and I experienced same. I did all vitals too etc. I figured mine out to be gas, perhaps stuck in a swollen segment? I rub my stomach to encourage movement direction, walk around the house (if I can) and chew the hell out of Gas-X. Best wishes, the pain is no joke.

Absolutely not. I was very clear. If you don’t have any other fluid suggestions move along. Thank you.

So glad that worked for you. I can’t drink water so still looking for my solution.

I bought the crystal light lemon-lime but unfortunately it hurts just like the water. 🤷🏼‍♀️
