Surgery date set!

Amber C. said:
So I had surgery yesterday. Everything went great! Today, I'm working on drinking plenty of liquids so I can go home. The pain isn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I sure am tired though!

Great news I've now advanced to the soft foods!! My "first meal" was some scrambled eggs lol. I also got to stop taking my blood pressure medicine. The only bad news so far I got from my rheumatologist-my liver enzymes are high. Quite an interesting journey so far. Thanks everyone!

That is good new! Congratulations! I'm happy to say that I don't have any of the craving I used to at this point. In fact, I usually don't even feel hungry. I've experienced a few episodes of vomiting already. Not sure if it was dumping or just that my pouch didn't like it. Either way, I'm learning!
