Did they do any blood cultures on you while you were in the hospital? This may help lead them in the direction to find out what could be causing your problems.

Ask for blood cultures next time..they pick up what basic labs don't.

It really sounds like a leak. Vomiting is a sure sign. Be firm and have the med people triple and quadruple check for it.

Really sorry to hear this. After getting to know a few here who've had complications, I feel for you as they almost all took time to resolve. Stay as strong as you can. Keep on it, fight for yourself, you truly have to be your own strongest advocate, and don't be afraid to get a second opinion.

Oh no Lux. Sorry to hear this news. Glad there is some movement for you though and that there is something being done.

Please keep us posted and feel better soon!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
