update for ashamed and frustrated



Recommended Posts

First thank you everyone for your support.

I went to see my Dr a few days ago. Well last Christmas I got the flu. After I was well my neck was in pain. I went to see my Dr and my thyroid was inflamed and swollen. Now I am cold all the time, my hair is falling out, I am tired all the time and I have gained weight. Hypothyroidism! I have one more test and maybe another ultrasound to do and that will tell my Dr if I need meds to help with my thyroid problem.

In the mean time, I got another fill and now up to 7.5 cc and continue with my diet and small portions. And go back for another fill in June..

I am not so worried about the fill, I would like the get my thyroid under control.

Thank you everyone for your positive thoughts and being supportive, It really help me get through my negative feelings. I think I will be ok now. But I will be back for more encouragement when I need it.

takuwinds,

So glad you made this post. I was literally just wondering about how you've been doing!

Glad you went to your Dr.'s to find out what was going on! It's good you have answers now and that you went and got yourself taken care of! Hypothyroidism will definitely throw you off track.

Stay strong and keep pushing through. You're doing all the right things for all the pieces to fall into place!

Keep in touch!

      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! 😞
