I had my sleeve on 4th jan 2012 was not easy but it's really worthed....I lost 17 kg up to now. Went from 98 to 81kg....

One week ago I felt really sick fever, shivering. I was unable to put anything in my mouth ....doctor told me its viral. took paracetamol and bruffen.

After that now o e week I can't eat nothing...I drink juice ,water and that's it. If I put anything I will throw it up I feel that food can't go down anymore...tomorrow. My appointment is next week ...

Please If you had this before, share with me...I have no idea what's going on

Also I have this spasms like contraction in my stomach every now and then

Call your doctor!

I second that,,call your doctor!

Thank for your replies... You were right I ended up in emergency room .

I never felt this bad in y life. Like zombie, not eating for 10 days and not drinking even Water I was unable to take.

And the cause I had a whole stomach infection, abscess as big as 3cm , and a leak and with all this I had NO PAIN the doctors were wow. But really I didn't feel pain that's why I was not concerned about leaking bcoz they say the first symptom is stomachache .

Anyway I'm under heavy antibiotics, they sucked out the pus,nothing by mouth for one week. I'm feeling a lot better but scared for what might come next.

I'm praying god that this will the end of the suffering.

Oh my goodness, Kookia. Bless your heart! Thank God you got some help. I pray for you to make it through this with as little suffering as possible. Please take care and keep us updated.

I am glad that you ended up where people could take care of you. You're in my thoughts, take care of yourself, and keep pressing forward!

Thank you all for your concern.

Yesterdey was my leak surgery, more fear than pain .it went good.next?

The only good thing about all this is that Hospital gown I wore was size small.

YAY!!! enjoy the little (yet momentous to us) things!!

Now 13days in hospital. I still have nothing by mouth I'm on feeding tubes. All wired I feel like frankenstein . It's not fun anymore but I read it's still a long way ahead. I'm so depressed coz I don't what to expect : they say thery are gonna put the stents but I'm still waiting. Will it heal? How long? When are they gonna remove the drains? All these questions with no answers. It sucks when you feel you have no control. I still have only 8kg to lose to reach my target weight I have lost 20 kg so far ...please those of you out there who had a leak, tell me how did you do?

Omg praying for a speedy recovery for you!!!

Thank you Iliana.

Oh my what a trial you have been through. I am saying a prayer for you right now. Just a quick question...doesnt your doctor come by atleast 1 time a day. Ask him/her all your questions and keep asking until they have an answer. I have learned that if the medical staff treating you cant answer a question now ask them when they will be able to tell me...like can I get the drains out...they may say not until you are no longer draining fluid. Or how long does the average patient with a leak stay in the hospital? For now try not to be down. It isnt like you did anything wrong you just need to let your self heal.

I am so glad you went to the ER when you did and I am so sorry to read you have a leak. It is surprising you had no symptoms especially since you were so far out. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Thank you all for your support. It's uplifting you have no idea

Yep no symptoms can you imagine? , no vomitting at first,no shoulder pain, no abdominal pain, no nothing. I was hsving little discomfort after eating but i said to myself maybe i ate too much.That was the problem and the doctors were like wow I had Only fever and since we had a flu around the house I said maybe I got it...the only indication is that my eating was diminishing little by little until I couldn't eat anymore and I started vomiting.

I did another GI no leak apparent but the doctor told me to be in the safe side we gotta put the stent. And I'm waiting because it's not available it's coming from US.

I have a release now in the evening to go see my children. I'm doing fine over all. Yesterday I went shopping I stayed out for 5 hours and it went fine. Let's take it day by day.

Than k you for your support ....it's over now I'm healed thank god.. As they say in France I'm saine et sauve
