It has been a while since I have updated.

Last week I began having the severe throwing up and not able to keep food down problems again.

Over the past few months my heart burn was getting worse and worse. The doctors kept putting me on prevacid, nexium, etc to help but nothing was working. Then for the past month maybe more - time starts to get blurry when you feel like crapola - I would wake up in the night choking on my own throw up (indigestion).

Last week I had a melt down about all of this. I am tired of not feeling good. I had lap band surgery to feel better with myself and be healthier. And I have not be healthy all year! I went to my doctor and told him flat out - something is wrong with me and we need to figure it out now. He gave me more medicines.

I went back to the doctor the next day - lost 5 pounds. Started crying - and told him how miserable I have been. He signed me up for a barium swallow.

Next day I had my barium swallow - which was very difficult b/c I had not eaten in 3 days and felt terrible. But I made it thru - now I had to wait for the results.

Anywho. I got my results today. I now have a Hiatal Hernia. I have been reading about it trying to figure out where I go from here and what the doctors will have to do. A lot of people have Hiatal Hernias before they have lap band surgery and then it is fixed during the surgery. Well - I have mine now. A hiatal hernia with a lapband. Oh goodie.

I will get to the doctor as soon as possible to see what can be done next. Atleast now I know that I am not crazy. I have something wrong with me and it has a name and there are ways to fix it.

Now time to fix it!
