    Stressed! Help!

    Thank you Berry78. It has been a little difficult getting my protein in and taking supplements because of the H. Pylori. I am not to take calcium and iron with the antibiotics. My protein shakes contain both iron and calcium. It is very frustrating trying to get rid of the bacteria and trying to stay healthy and up beat. I am on my second round of antibiotics because the first round did not get rid of it.
  2. I am seeking others that can understand what I am going through. I had surgery almost 5 years ago. I am 14 lbs away from my goal weight! It seems like that is so far away. My body has been through so much and I am still going through somethings. 3 months after I had my surgery, I had to have gall bladder surgery. I went 2 years doing well. In that 2nd year of having the surgery, I had 2 hernia repairs! During that time, my husband and I were trying to get pregnant. We were not able to get pregnant at that time. In that same year we found out that I was pregnant the day before I was to have an Iron fusion because of my low iron. ( this was in October of 2014) In January of 2015 I had to have bowel obstruction surgery while I was 3 months pregnant. I was in the hospital for 9 days and was not able to eat for 7 days. I thought I was going to die, but I knew I had to stay strong for my unborn son. My pregnancy was great and stress free after the surgery. Then I had a c-section which was fine. Went well! I had gained 50 pounds during my pregnancy. I was 20 pounds away from my goal weight before I got pregnant. About 9 months later I had to have another hernia repair. Here I am almost 5 years post op and I found out that I have H. pylori. I took antibiotics for that! ( 3 medication to be exact) it messed with my stomach really bad. All I could do was drink liquids! Now I find out that I may have another hernia! I am tired all of the time! I don't have the energy to exercise. My eating is horrible, because I can't really eat anything because of my upset stomach. I guess what I am looking for is someone that has had problems like this since they have had weight loss surgery. I apologize for this being so long, but this is the first time that I have really expressed how I feel. I have kept so much inside and I have finally decided that I wanted to let it all out. I am so afraid of what the next step will be. Oh yeah and by the way, I am moving to another town and is trying to pack the house and fix it up along with my husband! Any advice and encouraging words are greatly appreciated!
