Ok now in your hell. Nothing but liquid coming out. :sick Can't even call it diarrhea. This was my day up until 10 minutes ago:
2 cups tea, 4 cups water, 1 Carnation Instant Breakfast with whole and skim milk mixed, 2 cups chicken boullion, 1 Slim Fast.
In the past 20 minutes, trying to see if I can firm myself up: Vitamin Water grapefruit/cranberry, half the bottle, 10 ritz crackers I let melt in my mouth, 2 very thin slices of Velveeta cheese.
I have nothing else in the house. I know the old diarrhea cure is Bananas, Rice, Applesauce and Toast. I don't have any of those here.:help:

Wow, all this talk is getting me so excited about my journey :p
I've already got this stuff and I'm not even banded... hope this isn't TMI, but if your butt is "sore" down there, try A & D gel in a tube (not the cream). It makes it not sting and doesn't hurt when you go number dos. | |

Wow-- I've been on clear liquids since 24 hours before surgery. Before that I had my bowel prep. and got myself completely cleaned out, so I haven't had anything even close to um, uh well, you know. I go in for a band study today (barium swallow and x-ray) and then begin on full liquids after that. Hopefully that will get things moving. | |

Has anyone had the dry heaves? Ugh...I haven't been able to pass gas either? Keeping me from feeling better. I am drinking but just not getting beyond the "Heaves." Could it be results of anesthesia? Only banded 48hrs ago?

I had one incident of the thought I had gas and oh sh** that wasnt gas! It thankfully was in the hospital and i quickly learned why. I had downed some beef broth so fast and about 3 servings and remember our stomach isnt what it used to be. that was the only time and the last time it will happen to me. I learned and now I sip and I slowed down BIG TIME, as that was an experience to dont care to return to. just slow down and you will be fine. I do go to the bathroom just to be on the safe side. good luck
ps. another tip, I drink just a shot glass worth of shake, soup or whatever and then wait a few min before taking my next one and so on, I found this practice to be HIGHLY effective

I couldn't swallow or take deep breaths. Had to go back to the hospital for the esophogram and run tests to make sure I didn't dislodge the band.

I had dry heaves and found out I was dehydrated so I had to get re-admitted for IV's. IT IS NOT NORMAL TO THROW UP OR DRY HEAVE PLEASE CALL YOUR DOCTOR.
GOOD LUCK!

I am glad that people have had the same problem that I have had today. I'm sorry everyone has to go through it, but it is a relief all the same. It was 3 days of painful constipation, and I finally used a packet of benefiber in my water/applejuice.
I am 4 days post op and my poor tummy is grumbling, and I have been spending time in my bathroom today. I
I am on full liquids starting today. It has been really rough, because I am trying to get all of my fluids in. I've been drinking water and protein drinks throughout the day. I feel full as well, so I really don't feel like I want to eat to much.
Is there anything else that I need to look out for?
Thanks for the posts!
Leah
