Post Date: 2/17/12 1:39 am
I so need to know the name of her doctor at Mayo. I live near Mayo or LaCrosse WI and I need a revision. I keep losing weight. 5'2" and 96lbs. I am weak and want to die. I am breaking bones. I cannot eat sugar or milk products so I eat salad. My reg Doc wants to put a feeding tube in me and I dont think that is the right choice. My RNY was done in 8/1/06 and the doctors in LaCrosse WI do not want to see me. I have attempted suicide 3 times and the last time almost succeeded.
I go to a Psychologist and the other one. I forgeet things. I have shortened my life. They say my bones are like an 80 year old and I just turned 50 in December.
Please if I can get a name of a good Mayo doc SOON before I give up!!! I hurt so bad!! I am always nauseous. Something is not right!!
Anyone please help!!!
PLEASE!

My RNY was done in 8/1/06 and the doctors in LaCrosse WI do not want to see me apparently cuz when I was in the hospital there the doctors called for him 5 times and he never came!
I have attempted suicide 3 times and the last time almost succeeded.
I go to a Psychologist and the other one. I forget things. I have shortened my life. They say my bones are like an 80 year old and I just turned 50 in December. Please if I can get a name of a good Mayo doc SOON before I give up!!! I hurt so bad!!

I understand you are screaming out for help, but this is not the right place for you to seek it!
You need to go to the Mayo - by ambulance if need be, they'll get you seen quicker than if you just stroll in.
I'm curious, have you taken any form of calcium supplement since your RNY?
And your suicide attempts - were they relative to your physical health and bone issues?
Please seek help where you can find some actual, substantial help - not on a message board online!

UPDATE!
I broke my femur, knee and wrist from takinf 2 step just walking.
During the hospital they found me severly anemic, potassium way below acceptable, and a tiny fragile woman who had spiral and icicle like fractures and so thin I have skin hanging from my ankles, excess.
Anyway, they would not take a no for answer and set an appointment for Mayo for a possible reversal, they even went as far and gave me a new PCP because they said I cant wait until March 23 to see the old one. Monday I see my new one. No Wednesday. Pray I make it!!
I can feel my Potassium and BP drop, it makes me want to die and feels like I am. I have a will, living will...I am going to be starting a Generation quilt. For my kids. My time is shortened on this earth, I have been told that.
I am OK with it though I hope to get enough time to go to remarry the man who has stood by my side through this and never hit me or abused me like the man I married and he killed himself.
I want people to never have this surgery. We cant absorb...doctors in all fields are still too clueles on this.
So another surgey to go, and Lord if I make it...I will not stop..I will continue to leave a legacy of some kind for my kids, I want to be known.
All I ever wanted was love and acceptance. I will get that in heaven. Pray..Please!
God is good!
I pray for time and streength to make it through this, though I am so so weak!
Many Blessings!

I am sad to hear that you seem to have given up. As long as you are alive, you should fight to STAY alive! Isn't that why you had WLS in the first place?
You said you want people to never have this surgery. With all the issues you have had, I can understand where that came from - but I don't think you should be discouraging people because of your cir****tances. You are the exception, not the rule. Yes, there are people who have issues post WLS that appear to be relative to their WLS. There are a great many others, like myself, who would have this surgery annually if that's what it took to maintain the success, health and happiness the weight loss has brought us.
In the 5 + years I have been involved in the WLS community through research, having my own RNY, and being active in support groups both formal and informal, it is MY perception that the people who struggle with health issues post op fall into one of two categories -
A) They blame their health issues on their WLS, even if they are medically unrelated
B) They are suffering some form of malnutrition because they have not been diligent in taking their vitamins as prescribed by their bariatric program.
I think you need to consider both of those possibilities. And if, after being examined by this new PCP on Monday, you can truly claim that neither applies to you, then I apologize for my comments. I don't mean to sound cold.
Regardless of the facts, I will pray for you.
