After suffering all weekend. I ended up in the emergency room. With pain.

I have had a blood gas and there is infection in my blood stream. We are waiting for further bloods. I have quite a severe infection somewhere in my stomach. I'm not sure if its sepsis yet.

I've been admitted. And waiting for the surgical team to see me as they think it's my gallbladder infected? Or something.

I thought it might be my gallbladder but I was embarrassed to come in incase it was gas. I've been feeling so Ill but thought with a sleeve and not eating much I thought I'm 11 weeks in and just getting used to things.

I need to not be hard on myself. I've been crying doubled over in pain all weekend. But kept thinking I'm just being silly. As soon as I got Here they brought me straight in and gave me morphine. The consultant Dr even said I had a high pain threshold when I was getting the blood gas done so she said I should have come straight in as I was crying it was that bad

Anyone notice anything out the ordinary always go in.

I have fluids in my drip. Waiting for iv antibiotics.

On the positive I still love my sleeve my blood pressure was normal today! ( I used to Suffer from high bb that would be even worse if I'm in pain or in Hosp.

The consultant asked me why I had a sleeve I said " because I was fat " she said " you don't look fat at all!! Well I suppose you were 11 weeks ago " its nice to not look as fat.

Thank you for asking mama.

I'm exhausted.

I saw the surgeon and he said my CRP is 98 it was 1 two weeks ago. This shows infection or inflammation.

I had one dose of antibiotics then they decided to stop the antibiotics till a CT scan had been done. He thinks my sleeve could be inflamed also . its just speculation right now.

Its 4.37am I'm on my third bag of fluid. And on strong pain meds.

I'm so tired . I told them after all this I hope I don't develop a complex about eating. As even sipping water is not comfortable.

keeping positive

Thank you for asking woo. I'm extremely tired. I hope they do the ct scan today so I can see what's up. Im staying positive though. And just want to be home

Thank you so much Jesse and berry. Means a lot !

I'm praying for you Dreamingsmall....

ERM.. My problem is not sleeve related.. Although they spoke to my surgeon who wants me to do a barium swollow at some point just incase.

They did find something unfortunately. I'm in shock right now. I have to have a biopsy and some other things.

Thanks anyway for your support. Will let the thread die now as its now known not to be the sleeve.

Oh sweety, whatever it is, we're here for you, even if it isn't sleeve related. {Hugs}

Praying for you! I really hope whatever it is doesn't turn out to be serious. Take care.

Prayers for a great recovery. I waited, a couple weeks ago, with incredible pain -- had a very large kidney stone resulting in surgery unexpectedly. How glad we are that you got in and are going to be great. And kudos on 11 weeks!

Thoughts and prayers are still with you, whatever it is you're going though!
