So my turn for the er. My dr office finally called me back and sent me to the er. Waiting on labs and a us. Just in a lot of pain and having a lot of pressure. No bleeding so that's somewhat more positive but I'm extremely scared.

Thank y'all. Still waiting. I'm getting pumped with fluids right now I was pretty dehydrated. I haven't got the labs back yet or not that they told me. I was told I was going to US but haven't went yet. Just scared but

Hope it's not much of nothing. Thanks. I could really use the prayers. I'm scared.

Ok wide awake can't sleep all I keep thinking about is that the past month my weight loss has been sooooo slow and what if I don't lose all my weight. ..I don't know why I get so upset over it when sometimes I feel like "wow I've lost so much weight in 5 months" and now I think of how much more I need to lose and think I'm not gonna get there...I'm sorry I know I've said this all before it just really gets to me..am I the only one worried they won't reach their goal? ?

Missed my neurology appt...shoot.needed two transfusions. Had a serious bleed. My blood count went down to 6.5... Normal is 14! My bp is 83/38.....really not good. After the transfusions it went up to 90/57, blood count was almost 9. And they let me go home. This is all from sneaking maybe two cigarettes a week...I thought you had to have H pylori to have ulcers BUT NO! I'm done smoking for good.. I had quit before surgery and started 3 1/12 months after...big mistake!

Darn maybe the neurologist can sqyeeze you in when you explain you were in hospital..Did they say you should heal on your own? Yikes quitting is so hard I quit almost 2 weeks before and I did have one when me and my hubby went to a concert a few weeks ago but it doesn't interest me on a regular basis thank god! Hope you are feeling better tomorrow

      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! 😞
