Thought I made a huge mistake last night



Recommended Posts

4 days out and I went to an auction last night, that was not the mistake I told myself I would stay as long as I was comfortable. I took a bottle of Gatorade with and finished that so my husband went to the snack counter and got me a room temp Water, I forgot for a moment about sipping and played into thirst and chugged the water:blink: I caught myself on the 3 gulp and then panic set in. I got up and walked toward the bathroom just in case, but nothing, nothing happened! I had one few seconds of air that had to come up that was a little uncomfortable, but other than that I was fine.

I thought for sure after all my reading that I would either have spontaneous water flowing up the wrong way or intense pain.

I was so shaken by my lapse of memory I vowed to never leave the house without my little 2 ounce medicine cup again!

The other thing I came across was other people eating. I had no physical hunger, but when my sister in law sat down with her potato chips I could not help but think how good one would taste, and then my brother in law bought nachos with cheese. Again, looked good, would have loved the texture in my mouth but after checking my stomach there was no hunger for them, so I guess that was my first case of head hunger thus far? Don't get me wrong I am too scared to even try pudding right now, so I would never had tried real food at this point, it was just a new feeling to sort out.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
