Day 13 of hospital stay. Still wanting to go home. Can't keep fluids down at all. Not ice chips, water, nothing. Blood pressure this morning only 95/60. So they are pushing fluids in me like crazy. Now found out I have a rash on my arm. Maybe from antibiotics, but they are not sure. Feel like I took twenty steps back. I was doing so well I could do laps around the floor like crazy. Now I did half a lap yesterday had to stop twice and when got back to room couldn't stop dry heaving. On a brighter note maybe I will get a shower today. Hoping it gets better so I can go home tomorrow.

Praying for you! I wish there was so much more I could do. Hang in there u have had a great attitude so far! Keep it up!

Hopefully getting better!! Today was a much better day. Took a shower. After 13 days with a drain tube And pic lines that was a huge accomplishment. Hoping to take another one tomorrow! :) I was able to go on two half laps around hospital floor...without throwing up after = miracle!! Funny thing is the surgeon came by and apologized because they admitted yep admitted to letting me get way beyond dehydrated. But since they have been pushing iv fluids in me like crazy I am feeling better! Biggest items were I drank 16oz of Water and 12 oz chicken broth and kept everything in!!! I hope I have turned the corner! My hubby has been such a great support. He's here everyday. Such a good man. Married 18 years and counting. My parents will be back in town tomorrow or Tuesday so I am also looking forward to seeing them. Thanks everyone for your support and kind words and prayers. Only people on this board really understand how hard this is. I would not go back aNd change anything, or cancel the surgery. I just happened to be the 1/100 or however many that just ran into issues. I will tell you that if you are in pain or you think something is wrong get to your dr ASAP!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
