Thank you. We've been through a lot these last few weeks. Hopefully things are looking up.

how in the world do they treat a hole there?

I honestly have no idea. I'm guessing it heals on its own.

whatever you do - do NOT google it! I always google that stuff and it is surprising I'm not dead yet.

Hi everyone. Most of the Water has come off, but I still feel like crud. I thought I would feel better after the water came off and the stent came out. :(

Still have no energy to walk or do much.

How does a guy go from walking up to 15 miles a day just 2 short weeks ago to feeling like he can't walk 15 yards? Uggghhh.

all that Water could have messed with electrolytes or something. :-) I like the Vitamin water zero, maybe give that a try. It was hard on your body to go through all that. If you're still draggin in a couple of weeks then that will be something to check on.

I think too that your body has been through so much that it is just exhausted. I would just try to start over with the exercising increasing just a little bit each day. Once your body has recovered fully then I'm sure you will walking back to 15 miles again in no time.

For me often getting moving helps me move the sludgy feeling. However, I don't have a hole in my ureter. I don't push it. It's a balance between waking my body up and resting. You'll find your way!

I also have a follow up CT Scan on Monday to check on the hole in my ureter. While I'm there I'll give them this stone to run tests on.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
