I just don't know

I was sleeved 8-28-13. I was home on 8-30 (Friday) back to er the next Friday for vomiting, weakness and apparent dehydration. Did a barium swallow that showed lots of swelling in lower stomach so fluids were barely getting through causing the vomiting and dehydration. Spent another two nights in hospital came home Sunday afternoon. Went hinge in clear fluids but Wednesday they said to try full fluids again. Week Saturday was back in er in tears. Couldn't drink anything, couldn't keep anything down at all. Could barely walk was so weak. Well did a ct with contrast which showed really no issues. Due to me being so dehydrated i was again admitted. Was quickly filled with iv fluids. Sunday morning they did another barium swallow which showed my esophagus was very swollen. Nothing by mouth till Monday, finally back in clear fluids, Tuesday for dinner we tried full fluids again. They stayed down so after fulls again Wednesday morning they decided i could go home. I was sent home after lunch Wednesday. Thursday they put me on stage 4 squishy foods. Was doing ok on foods. Actually was really scared to try most foods. Well ten days later i had only vomited a couple times due to eating or drinking to fast. Well in the past few days i have vomited at least once a day every day again. I can't drink water at all, its gross, it somehow causes mental anguish to drink, i am just not thirsty at all. I had about 16 to 20oz of fluid today, maybe a little more with my soup and meds. I want to cry at the thought of drinking anything right now. I need to take my meds to go to bed and i don't want to. I have tried flavored, unflavored it doesn't matter i can't drink water. I can feel myself getting weak again, i have that small feeling of a headache coming on but never really getting full blown. I also do not get enough protein. I have not felt "good" for two or three days.

Well i think that about covers everything at the moment. Maybe this should have been in the rants i don't know.
