I am having left sided back pain after I eat?

I had a low dull back ache that was positional. Then at the 5th day I developed fever. Pelvis hurt like I had the flue.

Hello,

I hope your doing well. Sorry I have been so slow to reply. I had a real hard time changing IV to oral pills and being in the hospital for the holiday was real hard.

I have a leak. The dr said a good one!! Care was very prompt. The day I went to the dr I had a ct and when straight down to endoscope for my first stent. I had swallow study and i am allergic to the contrast they use. I was in the hospital for 9 days on antibiotics. As it turns out my stent slipped, so I went back to endoscope and now have two stents in place.

Yesterday I met with an infectious disease dr, because he has access to more antibiotics than my dr. I am VERY allergic to antibiotics, and my dr wasn't sure which treatment plan she should use.

I was on some antibiotics theough IV at the hospital, but my kidney function was greatly affected and my blood pressure went of out control.

I am on pain meds and I hope everything I am writing is coherent.

I was able to come home yesterday. I feel pretty okay considering what's been going with my body.

I will have these two stents for 6 weeks and then have another endoscope to either remove both stents or replace them. I have a lot of antibiotics to take here at home and other medicine. I don't like to take medicine, so this is hard for me.

I generally feel exhausted and tired. But keeping my spirits up! :) one day at a time.

Thank you kindly for all the support.

Best,

Sannah

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
