Last night I was counting the hours till daylight to rush to ER. I couldn't close my eyes for 2 minutes without feeling stabbed. I truly wished I'm dead. So, in the morning I called my doc and told him about my unbearable pain. Plus, I was having a mildly high fever so he urged me to run to the emergency. So I did. And they scanned my belly and analysed my blood. And they discovered I having a small leak on my sleeve!!!!! 2 days ago I was at my doc's and everything appeared excellent. Now I'm back to case1. I'm gonna have to stay hospitalised for 1 week! But the treatement is through iv and antibiotics. No more surgeries according to my doc. I'm soooo down. What shall I do with my kids in the meantime???

I'm glad that you are getting the help that you need and it happened in a timely fashion.. Even better news about not needing another surgery. Just take it a day at a time and don't be timid about asking family and friends help with your children..

Oh wow! I'm sorry to hear you have a leak! But I'm so glad you are getting medical attention! And that's good news that you won't need surgery to fix it. I agree with Laura, don't be shy about asking for help with your kids. I also agree, take it one day at a time, you will get thru this! Sending a prayer your way! :)

small leak on my sleeve!!!!!

elpaso73

OH NO!!!! :angry:

i'm so very sorry. :(

staying in the hospital for a week :(

iv, antibiotics - if doing this, and you will be fine - worth the inconvenience of the hospital stay

hopefully no more side effects/problems

being down, depressed now - i can only imagine how you must be feeling

wish i could take the kids for you (seriously) and put your mind at ease

hopefully you have family - mom, siblings, friend that will come to your rescue????

i'm sure someone can understand the severity of your situation - and help out

even if people alternate - couple of days mom comes over, then one friend, later someone else

you should/must have help once you get home

you will be recuperating - and you need your rest - and some help too maybe

good luck hun

take care

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

      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

      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! 😞
