I ended up back in the hospital due to a blockage that wouldn't let the gas pass and it put me in alot of pain to where I couldn't do anything.. Finally they decided to try a suppository and after 40 minutes it actually worked and ohhh was I relived but then I was now having bloody stool so now I'm being monitored all night to make sure I'm not bleeding inside!! I just wanna go home and join my wife.. Nothing like taking this journey together and now were separated and she's doing it on her own!!

Will keep you posted and hopefully I will go home tomorrow

I had my surgery on Monday and due to a blockage I was passing bloody stool and they have now stopped the Heprin shots cause they believe I'm bleeding inside!! If stopping the shot doesn't work I will have to have a blood transfusion!! Then who knows what after!!

However my pain is not bad , actually feelings great and my wife is doing excellent and is now not a patient but is staying here with me at the hospital!!! Will keep ya posted.. Just wanna go home so I can begin my journey with my wife !!

T-T, I hope stopping the shot stops the bleeding, praying for you. And all the power to your wife, she's a keeper. After I was released all I wanted to do was go home and rest. Prayers for both of you. I had my incision bust open 2 weeks after my surgery and wouldn't stop bleeding, it wasn't gushing, just kept bleeding. Had to change bandages like every two to three hours. I had to go back to dr and have them cauterize it but it finally stopped. And like you I have had no pain. Good luck to you again.

      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! 😞
