Summer 2018 Surgery Buddies: POST-OP Discussion
Frustr8 replied to Ylime's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Shame Hurricane Florence didn't wash that guy out to sea! Let the sharks have him! When you were in pain where did he expect you to go besides the ER, the Multiplex and. watch Star Wars beginning to end? I think I once had a boss who might have been an aunt. She said " I just hate to order the Xtra large size Adult Diapers, even tome I do you girls use them all ! Sorry but that is what they were there for, we had many patients who the one-dize'fits-all,size just didn't fit. When you're large, your happy equipment should not be bound up , just because some were not verbal, it did not keep them from being uncomfortable. -
Marginal/anastomotic ulcer anyone?
Frustr8 replied to eudys3's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Not really , vomited until 3am, even the popsicle I ate afterward came back up. Tried to take it easy today maybe 40oz all day, tried to drink premier protein in flavor I used to like , just can't hack it. half left, I feel rotten, chest still sore from last night. And rotten son begging me to make him a peanut butter cake. They gave me until. tomorrow morning, if my happy butt isn't doing better , I hot to find someone to take me down to Columbus 50 miles away. Fearful I need the EGD scheduled for next Friday sooner , maybe I have a stricture. -

Today is like Dolly Parton's Hard Candy Christmas for me, not even Christmas in July. Its a month today, well it was at 7AM, and I am having a Why Me day! Ellie 123 says, and rightly , I should call into my Bariatric hospital , let them know I was vomiti,g until 3AM, even the butternut squash soup from early evening was coming up, as well as popsicles. This is not what I booked for, I swear I booked from the "smaller appetite and weight loss" pamphlet. 😟😪😷. Oh I have lost, 22 pounds since surgery, reminds me of a Bible section. Can't help it, I live in 5he northern outskirts of the Bible Belt. What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his immortal soul? My insurance paid my 💰 money, but today what did I gain?

Anyone have full knee replacements prior to bariatric surgery? Any problems later?
Frustr8 replied to Born in Missouri's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Yep, last Monday I was leaving my Municipal Court building, went to turn corner back out to sidewalk, question is: Did I trip, slip, misstep or start to black-out? I feel the last, my son is feeling the first. Anyhow, down I went, torn the skin off my right forearm, not simple concrete rash, now that I am losing my" sub-q" fat layer skin has started tearing. Have are under left eye, thought it itched, went to rub it, yeah I know, fingers out and away from eyes, but,I'm human! Ripped the little rascal open, maybe had blister prior? Had small tear on upper left gorearm, what happened there? IDK but it took 5 full weeks to heal. Inventory of last oopsey? Skin tear right forearm, right knee- replaced 2014, very bruised but still in place, base of last 2 fingers and up hand to right wrist, visibly bruised, 2 bruises on left abdomen, hit curb? Maybe but too fresh to be caused by surgery. And right before surgery, like a couple days prior, was at place paying on a account, they had their outside bench removed, so asked for a chair to wait for street bus. My days of standing, leaning on my cane, and smiling. Not too often. Brought me a chair, one of the rolly office types, height I should have,no problem with. Okay, went to climb up, left leg numbed out on me, chair went backwards and I was on my face on the floor. Nobody that has my problem can understand this, but when getting up which knee does one sacrifice? Both surgeons told me DO NOT KNEEL on this knee I have repaired, it is one of the most expensive items You now own. So how to get back to my feet? I crawled to a low shelf, between my own efforts, and that of my son and another male there, somehow I regained an upright position. Note to self : Never get out face-down on floor so you can't get,up! And after this last skirmish, while,bandaged my forearm, Dr Dubious, my semi-beloved PCP, says Are we planning any more falls? Dunh, I certainly wasn't planning this one! 😪😒😪 -

Will do - I promise!!👸😪💦 -
Thank you Hug Mama, I can use and appreciate all the prayers I can get. Up until past 3AM this morning upchucking, not even sf popsicles were staying down. Taking it easy this AM, trying to decide what to start day with. Bone broth, protein shake, a thin creamy soup, flavored no call water? Nothing sounds good, my son concerned I will go anorexic. When I am still 298,pounds who will believe it?💦😪
