2 months 2 weeks post op. Felt bad this morning. Blood sugar



Recommended Posts

Blood sugar was 120. Dizzy dry heaves. Had appt for prep for carpal tunnel 50 miles away. They didn't want to see me because I looked bad. Hospital was next door. Nurse wheeled me over. After blood tests seems much sodium was almost low enough to cause seizures. I was admitted. Sitting her now. Tired but feeling better. Hospital food has increased my blood sugar... Oh. Much BP was 65 over 55... They blamed the sodium.

More answers tomorrow

Spent a couple of nights in the hospital. Home now. Feeling ok. Tired but ok. Sodium is good. My symptoms were like low blood sugar to me. Not much to do to improve my sodium except get an IV.

Oh. Told me to cut back on water! I've been working hard at drinking lots of Water. Now 6 eight ounce cups per day. No more than that. Geesh. Said that may have been washing out the sodium. Gah!

In the hospital for Breakfast this morning I had a biscuit, eggs and two pieces of bacon. I ate all the bacon and most of the biscuit and half the eggs. So there... I gained 2.4 lbs in hospital... But finally had a movement when I got home and lost half that... Heh. My weight seems to fluctuate 5 lbs some days anyway. I started using two scales just to check them against each other... So my numbers are fairly reliable.

      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! 😞
