  11. Surg 12/13, last BM 12/20. Has anyone gone 2 wks no BM? I don’t not have pain or well the urge to go. This just doesn’t seem normal. I know I haven’t ate much food only have introduced eggs so far.
  12. 12/19 I was discharged from the hospital early that morning my midline infiltrated with potassium. Late afternoon they still allowed me to go mainly because I had my follow up with the Dr the next day 12/20. At my appt low oxygen, sweating, couldn’t get in more then 10oz, terrible pain in my arm. My surgeon sent me right to the ER finding out I have a Blood clot in my arm. I really do pray and hope i’m not the girl that’s always back to the hospital ??
  13. Leak test came back no leak and i’m extremely allergic to Dilaudid [emoji53][emoji53]
  14. I Have a lot of med allergies it sucks. I’m trying believe me i want to go home to my sons so bad.
  15. i’m not getting more than 90cc of fluids down if i’m lucky. So i can’t leave on top of my pain not being controlled it’s been a rough 5 days here
  16. I feel like this has been the biggest mistake of my life. Day 5 in the hospital, Surg was wednesday 13th. In so much pain can’t get anything more than 90cc down and that leaves me in terrible pain. My ivs infiltrated filling my left arm with Potassium i now have a midline in my right arm. Walking as much as i can even as painful as it is. Went for an esophalgram to make sure there isn’t a blockage or leakage. I feel like everything is going wrong. Maybe some ppl i just met to stay fat what’s exactly how i am feel. I can more or drink without tears running down my face.
  17. Anyone out there awaiting surgery? Looking for a buddy to be able to talk to through it all. Tonight was my 1st class 2 more to go. Nov 22 I book with my Surgeon for December. Super excited for this journey.
