Ouch! You take really good care of yourself you hear!!!! A lot of the worst kinds of problems with this stuff STARTS with an infection. Im not trying to scare you. Just THIS EVENING my Husband and I had an indepth conversation about that VERY THING. IF YOU HAVE ANY CONCERNS DO NOT HESITATE TO CALL 911 or your Physician, sooner rather than later. I wouldnt be in an all fired hurry to get it back in either, until I KNOW Im out of the red zone.Please be smart, and heal good! Good luck and I will say a prayer!

WITH COMPLETE SINCERITY, Sandy

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
