Sleeved on Friday and still in the hospital

So I went home Saturday got very weak and had to come back in. My bp dropped to 40/10. And the dr determined I was bleeding inside. I went to the icu for a night and then to a room. So here I am waiting for my blood levels to go up. Thank u all for your prayers and well wishes

OMG 40/10! I've never seen a blood pressure that low. I hope they find out what's going on. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Hope is going better today now that they know what it is - keeping you in my prayers, from my own hospital bed (I was sleeved today). Question, did they do a leak test on you poor to letting you start on water? I have an extremly dry mouth because I can't have water till after the leak test tommorow.

Yikes, that is so scary! Another reason Drs should let their patients stay in the hospital longer. I hope you are feeling better soon. Best wishes your way.

So a quick update. I got to go home yesterday. I was bleeding internally they think a blood vessel didn't completely cauterize. I feel so much bettter. Bp is up to 110/50. Thank you all so much for your prayers. I'm having no problem sipping liquids except for the protein drinks and they give me diarrhea. I guess it's pretty normal to feel weak after surgery also. Thanks again for being there

I had diarrhea for the first two weeks- my doc suggested diluting the Protein Drinks a bit more. It went away in week 3 (now the opposite!)

So glad you are home!!!!

I'm so glad to hear that you are home and feeling better! You've been in my thoughts...I did have to have surgery for my bleeding, I'm glad you didn't. Take good care with yourself!

So sorry to hear of your complications after surgery. It sounds like you have some anemia from blood loss, too. I hope you will be better very soon! :(:rolleyes:

OH MY!! That is really low! Mine got down to 99/40 and I felt horrible!! I could not imagine!!

GET WELL!!

The protein drinks did that to me too! NASTY!!! It will get better in time. I can drink them now, just don't like to!

Hugs,
