I had surgery again!

Never thought I would be posting this but wanted to let you all know of all the problems I have been through. 08/30/04 - Lap RNY Surgery 10/01/04 - hospitalized for vomiting and dehydration (thought it was a virus) 11/01/04 - hopspitalized again for vomiting, dehydration and abdominal pain (at this point I am scared to death and had no answer) 11/17/04 - Went to ER with same symptoms ended up having surgery to remove bowel obstruction on 11/20/04 I have been in the hospital for 7 days this has been a very horrible experience for me. I never thought I would be posting about my complications. Its one of those things that you think would never happen to you. I hope my journey from here on out is a little smoother. --Marianne

Marianne, Sorry you had to go through all of that . Hopefully, this will get you on the road to recovery! Good luck and feel better Michelle

Marianne: I am so sorry to hear that you had complications. I hope that you are over that now and on the road to recovery. Patty

Marianne, I hope this is the end of your problems. I am so sorry that you have had to go through all of these complications. I pray that you will heal quickly and go on to have a wonderful rest of the year, and an even better 2005! My thoughts and prayers are with you! Polly

Marianne, sorry you have gone through this... this surgery is a roller coaster ride... never know whats going to happen..... Take care of yourself... I will keep you in my prayers.... Debra

I hope things are going better for you... I had some complications too with vomiting and dehydration and I ended up having a surgery to put a line in for me to get my nutrients.. I was not able to eat for approx. 2- 3 weeks.. Lisa Don't worry it'll get greater later "kiss" ((hugzz))

Marianne - I pray that you are through the worst of it. Complications occur in such a small percentage of cases. That statistic doesn't mean much when it is you, does it. You certainly have been through the ringer. I hope your recovery continues uneventfully for the duration. I'm a little over 3 months out and feel great. I pray for the same outcome for you,now that the obstruction is gone.

Lord Marianne, I am so sorry.... That scares me as you know I have had the vomiting issues since surgery. I have had test after test that do not show anything. What you are experiencing is my biggest fear. I am so very sorry that you have had to endure this. I am going to pray that from this point forward, you do well. God bless you, try to rest, and gather your strength back! Take Care and praying for you! Denise

Marianne...Wishing you the best. If it helps..protien drinks count as part of the water intake.....try to find one that works for you...keep yourself hydrated. You will be ok in the long run. Mary Rny aug 4th 2004
