Gastric sleeve surgery leak

Good afternoon, I'm dealing with alot. I had a cancer scare, Thank God it wasn't cancer. I had surgery almost 3 weeks ago to remove a tumor from my ovary as well as a full hysterectomy. I came home on TPN and I hate it!! I have now stopped it and will have my picc line removed as well as the balloon dilation done due to my stricture on the 17th. Sorry you are dealing with that, hopefully it won't be long for you. Did they provide you with a nurse to come to your home to assist with the PICC line? Also my incision didn't close/ heal so im now dealing with a wound vac to help with the healing process.. this hurt like nobody's business. All in all, I'm down to 213lbs which is a plus and I'm happy about that. Although, I can't eat or drink everything, I still try to eat as much as possible and of course no exercising for me. Im praying for your quick and complete healing and thanks for checking in on me.

Oh my goodness! I hope and pray that you heal fast! I do have a nurse that comes . The not eating hasn’t bothered me as much as the not drinking and nauseous feelings. They just checked my abscess, getting better but not enough yet. Patience is not my virtue. Keep me posted on you!

Hi, Are you still on TPN? I am now on my fifth week of TPN. Today is a Thanksgiving. I’m most thankful that I’m still alive.
I’m very tired of not being able to eat or drink anything. I wonder how long this can continue without me going crazy along with not being able to work. I would like a update on how your doing.

Thanks Cathy

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
