Upper GI

I am having an upper GI Friday morning to check out my pouch. I called the Doctors office today I am having a hard time getting my protein and water in and I also have no energy what so ever. I think I got in 8 oz of water yesterday. The nurse called back and the surgeon wants to take a look and make sure the pouch looks ok and then we will go from there.

I hope its okay Jeff or that whatever they do find is easily fixed. You have to get that protein and water in.

Hi Jeff,
 I hope everything turns out to be fine. I had a lot of problems getting my fluids in as well. I also went through the whole lack of energy thing. My fluid problem went away after ....about the 5th week I think? 
Wishing you the best!

Hi Jeff,

I'm sorry to hear that you are struggling, but kudos to you for realizing that things weren't 'right' and calling your Dr. for support. Only getting in 8 ounces of fluid in one day can cause problems with dehydration quickly.

I look forward to hearing the result of your appointment.

Glad that you called the doctor.  Hope everything comes out ok.
Let us hear as soon as possible and I will send up prayers in the meantime.
