  1. I'm the 1% that has a better chance of getting struck by lightening. After bypass has twisted bowel then intestinal rupture. Spent 6 wks in hospital, ventilator,ICU, 7 surgeries. On top of all that I already suffer from depression and anxiety. Anyone else in the same boat. I'm 12 weeks out from my extended stay in hospital.

    Depression

    3&1/2 months out from my last surgery ( had massive complications) and have had depression for many years. Just recently started feeling better but my depression is kicking my ass. Therapy said its PTSD and I didn't like the exercises they wanted me to do. Any ideas?? Some days I don't get out of bed till early afternoon.

    Depression

    That was from a psychiatrist (councilor). The stupid breathing exercises. My surgeon is an hour away and I see a nutritionist but the psy eval was done when I lived in Roanoke (3 hours away). I need to find a different councilor.

    Depression

    Therapy just wanted me to do breathing exercises. Doesn't work for me. My surgical team can't help me with emotional issues

    please tell me the truth

    Went out last night and as per usual I just scrape all the stuff off the top and leave the bread. Soooooo yummy
  12. Quickly make yourself throw up. It happens to me sometimes. I use the opposite side of my toothbrush to put down my throat. It will help I guarantee

    Problems with rice?

    I don't do rice. Doesn't work with most pouches
  14. My cramps have gotten worse since my surgery and was pissed when I heard I couldn't take midol. Well midol has "midol complete" which does not contain an NSAID. Pamprin is also good. Just an fyi

    Post op pain

    Go see dr immediately. I was home less than one day after bypass and thought I had bad gas. Turned out I had a twisted bowel. Not saying your going thru that but better to be safe than sorry. I never knew so much could go wrong. 7 surgeries a month in the hospital and on a ventilator. Your probably fine but see someone now just to be sure. If it's that painful go to ER!!!!!
  16. I haven't but I need to cuz after I had all my complications I found out I'm allergic now to morphine
