Well Friday the 22nd had surgery. Went to recovery for a while. Then they sent me to my room. Later that Friday I started throwing up blood then had diarrhea.I did that the rest of that day. Saturday morning about 5 I sent for the nurse because I had to go to the restroom. She helped me up. I got dizzy and the next thing I knew I was on the floor. I was there for about 45min. They got me on the bed. I stand in bed for the rest of the day.

I noticed that my foot was hurting and I kept telling everyone.

They sent me for a CT SCAN they found the leak and I had to go back into surgery and stop the bleeding. I had the to have 3pints of blood.

Well my doctor came in and check on me and I told him that my foot was hurting. He had it x rayed and come to find out my foot is broken. Now I have to go the surgeon and schedule for a foot surgery. This has been a real experience. I don't think I ever want to go through this again.

I'm sorry you went through all of this. I had my surgery on 7/18/16 and the recovery from the surgery was tough for me as well but not like this

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
