Woke up from surgery without the bypass.

I went into surgery Monday morning to do the gastric bypass after having several issues with the band last year. I woke up in recovery to find out there was more infection (this would make surgery #4 to remove infection.) in the lining of my stomach and he couldn't do the bypass. I am completely heartbroken. I had to gain several pounds just to re qualify for the surgery.

I really feel like this past year has been for nothing now. :(

    So sorry to hear this! I'll bet you are discouraged. I'm sure once your infection is gone you'll get the surgery! Hang in there!
