Awe man! I am so sorry!! I've always read your posts because your cute pic w the banana catches my eye.

What's the black stuff in the photos?

I am so glad that you didn't wait to get help and that the hospital didn't delay your care.

Hugs!!

Hello!!!

The care has been so rapid and very minimal pain. I don't know what the black stuff is. I thought the stint in the dark? When I see my surgeon I am going to ask. :)

It could be the thicker part of the stent, but look at the bottom left photo. The top part of the stent is silver. I'm just curious....

Hello.

I am curious as well. I shall ask because I think your right, it's silver. My only other guess is its dark in there? Haha. No idea. I am going to ask my surgeon when I see her tomorrow and then we will know.

I can't thank you enough for the support through this difficult time. *hugs* i am appreciative

Not sure when I get to go gone. Hopefully sure.

Thanks for checking

You are a strong woman, Sannah! I had a leak as well and had to have two stents put in and found it to be absolute hell. You are one tough cookie! I am thinking good thoughts for you ! Your positive attitude is so amazing under the circumstances. I'm pretty much in awe right now of you :)

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
