    I was told most people experience dehydration after surgery. About 2 months.

    Nicetomeetyou 82 got a reaction from danaymacklin in 2 months today   
    Sorry I haven't written or responded in a while. I have had a very rough two months. I am officially 2 months out and I am just now starting to turn the corner. My hw 315, psw 269, sw 259, cw 233. The last 2 months since surgery I contracted cdiff, suffered from severe nausea and vomiting required multiple admissions for fluids and IV meds. Over the week, I have started drinking gingerale and for whatever reason I have all of a sudden started being able to hold food down. Today the doctor cleared me and I am doing so much better. I get to start my B12 injection and I got cleared to start working out. I am finally excited.

    How about calling around to the local nursing college? I know a lot of nursing students look for side jobs to pick up some extra money, if you can swing something for 48 hours that might be a good place. They could come over after school study and stay with you to make sure you are ok.

    Oh my gosh! C-dif is horrible, my hubby got it and ended up in the hospital.
    I cannot imagine what it would be like for a WLS patient given we already get dehydrated.
    So sorry you are going through this!

    People are human and make mistakes. With that being said I would show up and request in person. I definitely wouldn't report it.

    Typically your pay your deductible once that is met you pay a percentage of the bill until you reach your out of pocket. Then the company pays 100%.

    Nicetomeetyou 82 got a reaction from thenewdanni78 in Gastric Bypass x 1 week-Just Journaling for therapy purposes   
    Hello everyone,
    Today is exactly 1 week post op. High: 315, Starting 269.0, Surgery: 259.5, Home from hospital: 267.9, Currently: 258.6.
    1 week makes such a huge difference. In this one week, I had surgery, passed my swallow study, ate mash potatoes at the hospital, discharged home, became very dehydrated and had an ambulance have to come get me off the side of the road because I was too stubborn to ask for help and almost wrecked because I was near faint, had 2500ml of Fluid put back in, unable to tolerate foods/proteins, and have now seen the doctor that wants me to do a pedialyte challenge and if I feel better I won't need to go back to the ED. I am exhausted, frustrated, nauseous, I wish I could stop and rest for a few minutes but even resting feels like work. Today I have maintained 8 oz of Water and 4 oz of pedialyte and 2 oz of chicken broth. I am going to get better even if this kills me first. I am going to succeed!!!!!! I am trying to maintain my humor and positive spirit, just a little defeated at the moment and needed to journal this out. Thank you everyone for just listening and I hope you all are doing much better than I.
