I am so glad today seems to be going a little better. Sounds like still a little rough but any little bit better is good!

And that, folks, is one part of why health care in the US is so expensive and so many of you had to leave the country to get surgery.

Malpractice- being put to sleep expecting a VSG and waking up with a full hysterectomy when you're only 24.

No malpractice- having a frustrating but fully disclosed complication from an elective surgery after which various doctors and other medical professionals attempt to work together to solve and make right.

Only in America.

if her medical team is not working with her, malpractice

you mean in the US you can tell them what to do, even though you have no medical experience and are going off something someone said off a message board, sue them if they think it's not a good idea, calling it " not working with you"? and call it malpractice?

i mean, seriously lol. if hes not gonna put gloves on & remove this ****.. i dont wannatalk or see one. lol. my drs refuse to remove thestent because ill get really sick with a leak. they wanted me to stay with it for another week to 10days. they went in to make sure things were ok & fix what they could to give mesome relief. thats not malpractice. as bedhead said, had i woke up with a different surgery than thatsa different story. i knew the complications involved with the VSG and i knew a stent would be the route they would go. GRANTED, they never described noneoftheabove as far as constant nausea & vomitting but from what the drs say, thats not normal & everyone isdifferent.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
