3 Month Follow Up

So I had my 3 month check up and surprisingly my labs looked pretty good! I totally expected them to look funky, I am the queen of forgetting to take my Vitamins. My Vit D was low but I am getting a prescription for someone I need to take once a week for 12 weeks to deal with that. My good cholesterol was a little low and my bad cholesterol a little high but I was assured it would look better as I get more energy to start exercising more. Also they did a parathyroid intact and it was high but he said everything else looked good so he is not worried.

The decision was made to go ahead with one more scope, I am still getting that stuck feeling daily and usually once a day I get the intense pain feeling that landed me in the hospital last time *sigh* Hopefully it is just a stricture that can be easily ballooned open.

All in all he said I was doing really good and the weight is still coming off pretty good to so that is exciting :) Nothing fits anymore, Im down from a very tight size 20 to 12/14 and a 1X to a Large, sometimes a medium :) I am almost all the way through my "skinny" clothes that have not even fit me in who knows how many years so off to the thrift stores I shall go this week to find some to get me through ;)

You look great! Congratulations!!

You're getting so close to your goal already!! I am glad they are continuing to watch your sleeve closely for now, I hope it heals up completely and doesn't give you anymore problems, EVER. I know you are ready to put the leak behind you and enjoy the wonderful positives of your new sleeved life. You look wonderful!! You're got a great attitude too. Keep it up girlie!!

:)

You look amazing!!! Hope your swelling resolves itself soon. I'm only 5 weeks out, but I am still having to take hyosciamine (the anti-spasmodic) twice daily as I tend to get spasms where my esophagus empties into my stomach. He said my tube was very "tight." I'm sure I will eventually appreciate that! :unsure:
