Hang in there Bronx! Sending you healing vibes and happy thoughts. Keep us posted, we're all going to be thinking of you. ????????????

Thanks for the prayers and love guys, I'm on my 3rd blood bag, my levels are the same after the first 2. I am definitely spending thanksgiving here, they are going to do a ct scan, a sonogram on my legs, and upper gi, and xray. I guess they will check for everything. I'm still out of breath, like I really feel 600lbs. I have been thinking in a more positive way. I know I felt better when I was heavier but this is just the cards I got dealt. I'm wondering what's next.

Bronxmerci, I'm going to quit whining about my problems. Bless your heart! Keep us posted!

So I'm trying to attach a pic but

Phone won't let me. Oh well next time. Happy thanksgiving to everyone! I don't have any clots, I could of guessed that with all the bleeding. My 4th blood transfusion is responding, my level is at 7 now anything over 10 is okay but they want it at 12. Remember I told yall I was having black stools, well its blood like beni said. I seem to be having internal upper gi bleeding. Honestly there are doctors from all these different departments with different opinions and everyone thinks its one thing or the other. They think I am bleeding from my upper gi, they think something is wrong with my vaj cuz I had 3.5 periods in a month, they think there's a stricture, they think so much and I'm just like whatever man lol. I have to wait until friday for the upper gi exam. I am back on full clear liquids at 6 weeks out and honestly its okay because I hate food now. I really wanted to share this photo with you guys I look like crap in the face but my body is banging lol. I was 301 on my surgery date, and today I'm 247. The surgery works but damn it. came with some surprises.

Its crazy I was a healthy big girl now I developed all these issues trying to get to a healthy weight. Lmfao!

Question. Yesterday I was constipated TMI, that's fixed but today I have been having the worst pain in my pouch feels like someone is trying to turn it inside out or something. Tried to eat one thing today and was ok but also nauseous and burping a lot. What's the deal? Tomorrow is my first day back at work and it's a 12hr shift and I'm the only pharmacist there. This is the worst I've felt since surgery...any thoughts??? Help?
