Surgery fears..

[dreamingofasleeve 89]

I had RNY. I had symptoms pretty much as soon as I got home from the hospital. Everything I ate or drank BURNED LIKE FIRE, even Water. Two or three weeks later, after they realized it wasn't just "sensitivity", they did an endoscopy and found the ulcer. I was on a liquid medicine called Carafate for two months, four times a day, and Pepcid and Prilosec. It recently healed on its own. The hernia, I had no symptoms, but they saw it when I had to have my gallbladder removed on 1/5. I started having serioussss gallbladder symptoms 1.5 months out from surgery. Extreme nausea and dry-heaving. They didn't realize it was my gallbladder for about 3 weeks after I had symptoms begin. They sewed the hernia while doing the gallbladder.

Oh my goodness you poor thing!
I hope all is well now [emoji171]
I'm sorry I must have missed the rny info!
That has to be hard trying to heal from surgery and then having all those things go wrong in top of it!
Well at least you killed 2 birds with 1 stone on the hernia and gallbladder!
