BEEN A LONG LONG TIME>

Hello All, It seems like it has been forever since I have posted on the Missouri side. I don't get on as frequent as I used to. So much has gone on and is going on in my life right now that I just have not found the time to post as often. So how is everyone doing?  Im doing great thus far. I have lost 106 lbs since May 9th of this year . For the longest time though I was not feeling the best and then about three weeks ago they found I had a stricture and opened it up and I have been feeling SOOOO much better. I think that was part of the reason why I wasn't on the site too much. I would see how everyone else was doing really good and I thought something was wrong with me...well something was wrong with me but I didn't think it was a stricture. But needless to say, Im doing fine now and I think I can truly appreciate the surgery now. Before I had buyers remorse bad and I was doubting if I had made the right decision. I would like to say sorry to those I have not kept in contact with..especially my angel JAN (WINGS). I think being down the last couple of months was getting the best of me. I had goods days but more bad days.  So for anyone *****ads this....if you think for one minute that something does not feel right please contact your surgeon immediately because it could be something very simple to fix your problem but you'll never know unless you call....take it from my experience.

hello im still a newbie of sorts. I just had surgery but i read this post and i myself like the apology. I think it was enough said. So welcome back and know there are people on here who care. by the way what is a stricture

I'm glad you're feeling better and got that stricture taken care of!  Don't be a stranger - please stick around and post so we can get to know you.  Wise words indeed - when you feel bad and feel something isn't right - CALL YOUR SURGEON!!  It's always worth getting it checked out to be sure there's nothing wrong.  It's their job to check these things out and make sure you're okay.
