Why Jan?? Mine is 11th Dec and I was only day before you.. Was hoping we would have them on same day xx
 
Very well done. I know how difficult it is to be a patient at NGH but overall I received excellent care. To be honest, I am surprised they did your op at Thornbury given your medical history. Its never quiet in an acute care hospital! Regarding your hunger pains, drink, drink & drink again. You need to be drinking water, though. Stick some NAS squash in it to make it more palatable. I have to admit, I am rarely hungry but drink lots. Good luck.
 
Wow well done..must be a great feeling...a new you!!!!!
 
You are doing really well Beefy. Great stuff. After a shaky start, sounds like it is all going well now. Hugs a million. Excited for you xxx

Hi, tonight off to local dr's to get help with some meds that i still have they need changing to liquid meds, and to get weighed lol, yes recovering nice now, eating ok im living off melbra toast and low fat cheese.

im scared of getting the stich like pain after a meal in my left hand side that goes into my back, have bought some spearmint pills to take with meals to help out.

i hear that the 3 months injection hurts like hell lol not looking forward to that, i know my sister in law does not have this and she's had the same operation.

thanks for the best wish's.

I also get a stitch like pain on the left side too. I'm still trying to get used to all these rumblings and twinges I get.
I've just booked my b12 injection for next week too :(
 
Hi the b12 injection is not that bad at all I found heprin hurt more but do notice a difference after it
Good luck
 
I'm considering having the sleeve done and the prospect of having the b12 is already nerve wracking, so hearing that they hurt isn't good for me!! Lol. Hope you're doing well BBB, let us know about your weightloss when you're home! X

The b12 is not that bad at all just a small sting for a minute I think with a sleeve you do t need b12 anyway
