Hi
I had a drain tube and my wound kept leaking - this was about a week after surgery. My consultant told me to come in to have a look at it. It turned out that there was a clot of blood in the...
Hahaha Kitsonk! I am Scottish and love a bevvy! I have had a glass of wine since my surgery 5 weeks ago and it took me about 2 hours to drink it. I enjoyed it though. Glad I had taken a Zantac as I...
Hi Juney
I was told by my consultant that the NHS don't really do the sleeve. He said this is because the NHS don't want to advertise this op because they know it would be popular!!!! You would...

Hi
I have to say that our US cousins seem to have been given quite specific info from their dieticians! Here in the UK, there has been no particular emphasis on getting in protein - certainly...
Hi all!
I am 3 weeks post op and so far so good. I have been looking towards the day when I may well be 'thin'. Last night I got into a panic about it. All my life I have been the 'funny fatty' -...

Hi there
Welcome, first of all!
My 'rock bottom' moment was just before Christmas. I had been tested for diabetes and fortunately, I don't have it. I realised that this year I would turn 40 and...
I know this probably sounds a bit lame, but I find sugar free icicles ( ice-lollies) a total boost. I can get that extra little fluid in without feeling I am having to force something down. Hope you...
HI
I have a pain just above my groin area on my left side. It feels like a stitch you get when you run too much. I needed to sneeze the other day and physically couldn't because I thought my left...
Hi there
I got sleeved on 24th March. I had a really bad day a couple of days back when I just cried and cried. I couldn't seem to cry enough. Was confused about what I had done to myself. I started...
Hi
I have had an annoying cough since I got my sleeve on 24th March . My windpipe feels sort of furry (?). I feel a little wheezy but not like I have asthma or anything like that. I had a chest...
Hi
I had my sleeve done on 24th March 2011 in Aberdeen, Scotland at Albyn Hospital. My surgeon was Mr Duff Bruce and the procedure cost £10,000. Mr Bruce trained in the procedure in the US and does...
Bio-Oil is a good bet.It is great for moisturising, stretch marks and scars and it is not pricey. I am waiting another couple of weeks before I start using it as my wounds are not completely healed...
Hi there
When I went to discuss WLS with the obesity specialist, I went with the intenton of having a band. However it seemed to me that the major problem with the band, for me, was the constant...
I see my consultant tomorrow, so I am going to ask about them. But I am relieved I am not alone!!! xxxxx
Hi guys,
I have been getting a strange sobbing sensation when I breathe. It doesn't happen all the time, but sometimes when I take in a breath I get these involuntary 'spasms' that make me sound...
Hi there!
I was sleeved just over a week ago and am delighted! Nice to meet ya! xxx
Hi!
I had a drain, but no dye test. The drain was ok and the removal didn't hurt at all, although it felt a little strange...lol
