Miserable and depressed



Recommended Posts

What do you do when your health conditions are getting worst no matter what you do the doctors sounds aren't helping and you just don't want to get out of bed anymore... No relief from the GERDS, the diabetes and no weight loss..... At this point I give up I'm tired of trying the meds not helping I'm up to 4 shots of Humalog insulin one shot of victoza 1000mg if Metformin, Reglan 4 times a day, liquid carafate 4 times a day, omerpazole, Promethazine for the nausea and vomiting not to mention my blood pressure meds ugh I really regret having the sleeve and I'm still having all these problems that was suppose to get better and the acid reflux is worst than it was before I had the sleeve......

@@Titaniumsleeved2014 What you could do is find another Dr. If you're not getting the answers and help you need then find someone else. Do some research I don't know your history so I can't give you any advice like that. You need to get some help.

Why haven't you lost weight?

You sound like you would be a PERFECT candidate for a bypass revision. I think you really need to look into that.

Just saw you post on the other thread. PLEASE do not give up seeking a revision. No one deserves to be miserable and in pain. It may be a 4 hour trip but that's nothing compared to a life time of being uncomfortable.

If I was you, once I was done setting things up with the new surgeon I would then report the old doctor. Your revision should be on his priority list since it means you were an unsuccessful sleeve and a negative reflection on his skills as a surgeon. I realize there are no guarantees, but he should be making every attempt to make sure things work out for you.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
