I think I posted something Saturday evening but honestly most of my stay was a blur. My surgery was on 6/12/19- @ 08:00 am- I was discharged home from the hospital yesterday in the evening. I don’t want to bore you all repeating what I most likely posted but I just cannot find it 😓 my BP dropped I remember the room spinning and I felt drenched in sweat. I had two blood transfusions over 2 days, I have seen so many posts/videos of people @ 5,6 days post op and they are dancing and laughing. Y’all I feel like I got hit by a truck and today I feel worse than yesterday. Well thank you for letting me vent and I really do sound like a big baby 😊 I just realized as I am typing this how different we all are and we heal differently. I am grateful to be alive and have been given this chance
to live again!!

You don't sound like a big baby at all. ((Hugs)) You only sound like someone who has been through a really rough patch.

I am so sorry you have been put through the ringer these past few days. Hang on tight and it WILL get better. Promise!!!

Wishing you comfort, peace and healing. 💙

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
