I hear you girl one thing if you are getting dehydrated go to your surgeon you should be admitted for fluids do not let this go it is important plus with everything going on I'm sure it is confusing what's next because none of this is planned I had gastric bypass in 2003 but got thrown back into it last Wednesday I woke up pissed off mad as hell and I'm still on journey has begun again an I had no plans of it ugh please take care of you because no one else will


  2. <p>So up till now my post surgery has been no fun at all? I first had the worst time when I got out of surgery and the bed was awful at the hospital, I should have just slept on the floor? Then I got out of the hospital after spending one night but got home and was great for the first 6 days or so and then one week post op and I got horribly sick, fever, head cold, it was awful, at one point thought my incision was infected, and so I went to my doctors and he said it was not infected just oozing crap from the fat tissue they had to cut through to get to my insides, and that is when I found out the reason I had a larger incision than originally though with all the staples, and that turned out because I am a very tiny girl on the inside? Wow who would of thought after all this time? So the staples were just awful for the 2 weeks I had to have them in, they felt like they were stabbing me all the time, they really sucked. So yesterday I finally got the staples out and as i'm in there he is upset at how red it is around the staples and my incision and so as he pulls out the staples and starts pressing on the incision to push the oozing stuff out, the whole incision that was supposed to be closed up is now wide open again? He can't close it back up because of the oozing, and so now I have to let it heal from the inside out? I also have to wear a maxi pad on it cause he said it would be the best thing to cover it and soak up the crap, and I have to change that every hour or so? It has been all issues since I got out of that dam surgery, and I don't regret getting the surgery, but dang it can't I just heal up like normal people? I just want to cry all the time at all I am dealing with. I want to start working out more and getting in a routine and I can't now because of this. I can do little things, like I can walk, and I can lower body stuff and arm stuff, but nothing from the neck to the waste? That's where I want to lose weight??? Is it ever going to get better? Anyone have a clue? Anyone else go through what I am going through? This sucks!!!! :wacko:</p>

    I'm not going through what you are but ask your dr about wound healing the process can take months of packing for healing to start also in have found now that you have had surgery your malnourished so something that took two weeks could take two months good luck my dear friend
