  1. Two months behind me now, and my energy is finally picking up.  So for folks just getting surgery, if you don't immediately get the energy surge that people talk about, be patient!

      @Orchids&Dragons I'm sorry to hear that. Do you think you are getting enough calories, vitamins and water? Of course, it could well be that your body needs a little more time to recover from surgery.

      Thanks, Apple. Saw the doctor for my 12-week follow-up this week. Told him about nausea, weakness, dizziness and being unable to tolerate solid foods. After we talked, he ordered a big panel of blood work, a sleep study (because I bascially don't) and an upper GI. The upper GI was this morning and showed severe reflux. No surprise to me since I'm still on prescription-strength PPIs, 2x a day. I was afraid they might find a stricture, so at least it wasn't that. Calories I average around 700, which seems about average around here. I drink plenty of water but I'm on diuretics because my legs are so swollen, but my urine isn't dark, so I'm sure that's ok. I'll know about the vitamins when the bloodwork results come back. Sorry for the novel, but thanks for asking!
