Well friends I'm home and I have finally recoup enough to tell what happened to me. During surgery I lost 7 units of blood and required a week stay in the hospital and blood transfusion. Not a great experience....at all.

No, he doesn't know where my blood went too. Which is worry some. I have a follow up Monday and I'm going to ask that he investigate this closer. He only found out about the blood loss the next day when I passed out as the nurses tried to make me stand.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
