I've got admitted yesterday due to high fever (103.8 F), diarrhea, back pain , my whole body was aching and every time I take deep breath, my chest hurt. First I thought I have blood clots; however, after x-ray and cat scan, I found out that I have pneumonia.

If you don't mind, could you please keep me in your thoughts?

Hi:

One of my band friends also got pneumonia (sp?) shortly after being banded. I think she ended up in the hospital for five days. Now's a time to follow the doctors orders, get good medicines, and rest rest rest. This is not a good way to start, but things will improve as long as you take care of yourself. It'll all be worth it in the end.

Take care.

I love my band!

Sue

Thank you everyone for keeping me in your thoughts and prayers.

Right now as long as I have my med (morphine), I am ok. They are giving me a breathing treatment (nebulizer) 4 times a day. For Anti-biotic, they give me every 12 hours. They are also doing the stool culture to see if I have stomach flue or not.

I'll keep you guys posted. Thanks again for thinking about me.

This is terrible news, but at least you're in the right place - the hospital. Take good care of yourself and follow doctor's orders.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
