What are you experiencing that they think might be a problem?

Oh yes, very much so

WTH??? You seemed to be doing so well. That just totally sucks.

Honestly I thought I was. Idk, time will tell. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I keep the chin up and try to think of a positive of everything...Eventually I'll find a positive in this lol

What are you experiencing that they think might be a problem?

Misread your post, sorry. Well it seems they feel I should be able to eat more then what I am, and that I am ot 'sensative' to to much. I personally thought this was normal as from friends that have had it and through postings, but they feel it is a complication. My so called sensitivity to what I thought to be may be certain foods, seems to be a problem. Four months post op and I don't eat more then the size of a quarter, or at most half a gold ball size. They feel I should be able to tolerate more foods at this point and take in a little bit more, as well as not have a sensitivity to so many things. Only time will tell. IF my pouch is to small, then it will pretty much just have to stay at that size, if it is something else or a combination of that and something else then whatever the other part is could be fixed, such as if it was the pipe from throat to pouch that needs to be stretched then they could do that. But from the sounds of it they are thinking it's my pouch, the pouch itself or some kind of obstruction inside the pouch. Who knows, who knows :/ Jules what do you do again at the hospital? Maybe I will be seeing you with all this testing I am having going on lol. Ya never know. I will def keep you all updated. Thanks for the support Jules, Brick and Cherrie whom has sent me private messages to check on me. Best I can do is stay positive and make the best of it

Dear I hope u get through this! I haven't know u very long but I care for u as a friend! <3

Huggs for u

Currently at Albany Med getting hydrated. I am dehydrated so once they hydrate me they will be doing some testing. Will keep you posted.

Left the hospital because they are tools. Will just go back Monday for the test that I need. Not happy with Albany Med at all

Keepers. Are you not taking in a lot of fluids also? Sorry you had a bad time at Albany med. that ER is absolutely insane

Well they hydrated me as a precaution but once blood work came back it turned out that my electrolytes and what not were PERFECT! As I said, I think my doctor is a bit over worried. Keep in mind I did have a large amount of my stomach removed so obviously I'm not going to be able to eat dramatically at all and I would be more sensative to some foods. The doc threw in a comment towards discharge that with the percent I have had removed she felt it was normal what I am experiencing. Next week will tell us a little more.

Ugh stomach bug hit my house now I'm at St. Peter's for dehydration

OH, NO! Feel better, Jenniebell00!

Today I am officially 50 pounds down!

It's surreal. Last time I lost any significant weight (with Medifast), it took 5 months to lose 50 pounds and it was VERY temporary. But I thought THAT was lightning fast! Thank goodness I've made some good WLS friends who are at different stages. We exchange clothes and it saves a TON of money!
