Topic: update
well I saw the Urologist yesterday and he told me my last blood work (Monday) showed a lot of improvement. I have to have blood work next Thursday and that hopefully will be the normal one. Most of my levels are back to normal. They figured it was the antibiotic that I was on that got me so out of whack. They took me off Metformin and blood pressure med. and lowered my insulin to 10 and 5.
I am still struggling to get enough liquids in me. I can't get anything in excep****er. I talked to Diane and she said You have to keep sipping and get the boost in at least with the protein powder. She doesn't understand that I can't get anything in at all. I know that is bad and I guess the next thing I will end up in the hospital for malnutrition. lol
But on a better note I have lost all the weight I gained from fluid. and even lost 2  more beside that, woo hoo. So now I am down 28 lbs. So I gotta love that.

Hi, I live in Sydney Mines. I had my surgery on July 25th. I don't know if there are anymore of us tho. I am not doing so good right now but when I am back on track we could meet for that tea. And maybe in the meantime more people will pop up from here. lol

Thanks for reading! I am on the list, have been approved and my surgery is ready to go, but one of the qualifications is that I weigh less than 400lbs :(  That's why my goal is to weigh 400.

Hi CaperGal,

So sorry you're not feeling well.  Just try to take it one day at a time and sip, sip, sip.  I know I sometimes have a hard time getting all my fluid in, especially if I don't start in the morning (sleeping in).

If you are truly a CaperGal, then maybe we can get together for a tea or something.  I know tea is not recommended, but I still haven't quite weened off it yet.

Let me know.
