  3. Raymer!!! You killed it!! Fantastic, congratulations and great job! I'm so very happy for you!! Way To Go!! I'm 15 months out and you're an inspiration to me!! So excited for you! Enjoy your new life! No regrets, keep moving forward.
  4. Check your water intake. It sounds like you may be dehydrated.
  5. Thanks so much for going to ER!!! I cannot believe what you experienced!!! I'm completely amazed. I'm 14 months post-op and your symtons do not sound good. I'm really puzzled as you are. I do know that if you have a leak your heartrate goes up. You shouldn't be in pain at this time after your surgery. Have you ever been told you were anemic before? If I were you, I would do everything in my power to talk directly to your surgeon. They should be on call for emergencies. They should have given you an X-ray. Just wow!!! If your anemic where is the blood going? I'm confused. Stay in this forum and hopefully somebody has some better advice than what I can give you. Also you can search your symtoms at the top and read post that have been made with your symtoms .
  6. Hope, I was googling blood lots and scared myself. So I had to stop. Please update when you can.

  17. Maybe I can help. I agree it could be your kidneys. The post op diet we have for the rest of our lives now will be very hard on the kidneys. I have had kidney stones and surgery for them. I've also had kidney infections. The best way to find out if it's your kidneys is to start with a urine test at your Drs office. There they can tell you if there's blood in your urine. That's usually the first indicator medically of kidney stones. The true test would be an ultrasound or a MRI. The kidneys have a very difficult time with a lot of protein. This is why you need to drink water water water water. This is only from my personal experience. Don't take any chances. Make an appointment to see the Dr about this.
  18. I'm 14 months post op. I'm at goal and YAY!! So I have a miserable cold, really really sick. I took a half a teaspoon of phenergran/codeine cough syrup and thought I was going to DIE! Right in the center of my chest below my girls it tightened and the pain brought me to my knees for about 40 minutes. Does anybody know or have an idea of what that was? Something tells me I need to go back to my pre op notes and see if the above was a no no.
