Hey Everyone!!! Sorry I've been MIA for a while!

WoW!! I am SOOO Sorry I have been MIA for a while!!   I have been dealing with the whole bile duct thing again, and hopefully by the end of August, I will have gotten it all taken care of...sort of. I am finally having a stent put into the liver, to the bile duct, and then have to wear a stupid drain like a surgical drain to allow the bile to drain out. I also have to wear that sucker for a couple of weeks.  I am hoping that once they see that the bile draining out is making me feel better, then they will do the surgery they did last October, ERCP, so I can once and for all get on with life!! I had to postpone nursing school until end of Oct. because they would not get off their duffs and move!!   Dr Byrne and Dr Nguyen have been consulting with Dr Whitgrove as well in San Diego, and they all say I need to have the ERCP done again, scar tissue and little teeny bile stones are causing me the pain and nausea. Well, the bile duct specialist still doesn't want to bend in that direction to admit that it  could be clogged.  Why the heck does he care??  Its not like I am saying he did a bad job, so its his fault!! Anyway, I am really constipated lately too, so that has resulted in me gaining like 4lbs in 2 days, but once I can get "un-clogged" I will be back down to 148.  Since the breast lift and implants, the 147/149 weight range is normal.  I weighed 154 today, but I know as soon as I can get the Milk of Magnesia to kick in, I will be back to normal weight.  My clothes are still the same, so I know its not fat gain. Well, not much going on here except what I wrote about the whole bile duct thing.  I am going on the 2nd of August to convince the surgeon to do the surgery once we have the bile duct drainage bag in place, because I had to postpone school for him, and this blasted bile duct, and I refuse to do it again!! Anyway, I am also scheduled to have my Thigh Lift and liposuction of the legs/thighs/hips/waist area in the back, and anywhere else below the belly button lipo'd  front and back, and he will also do a scar revision on my LBL scar, since some of it healed rather thick/wide, from the tension on the incision after initial swelling and it doesn't take much to lean over a little to pull on the scar. So, August 30th, I am SOOO Excited as this will be the last major surgery on the whole journey from losing weight. I am making the bile duct doctors work in my schedule since I am trying to get it all done with school just around the corner. They said I could do my plastics, and if they have to do the ERCP, then they can just do it, and realize I am healing from plastics and they will just have to do with that, and a patient who will be grumpy in pain anyway :)  LOL I hope everyone is well.  I do love my new boobs, and I never EVER thought I would, they never mattered to me before, but now that I have them, they are really nice, and really do make a difference in my clothes etc... Oh, Dr Fuentes will also be doing fat grafting to the buttocks.  Yes, I am having fat injected back into my butt, since I lost SOOOO Much weight in my buttocks, he will add some back, and make it round and cute and tight, not square and saggy like it is now :) Miss you guys sooooo much!!! How is everyone doing who is really post op like me??  I will be 2 years post op on August 24th!!!  Can you believe it???   WOW  I remember when I was going in for my surgery, it seems like it was last year!! Anyone having any rebound weight gain??  Anyone else having a hard time keeping the weight on, and trying to gain weight???  If so, I hate you!!!  LOL :) Just kidding, but it is hard now that I am 2 yrs out, I see it will be a battle faught the rest of my life!! HUGS!!!   Sorry for the MIA, I will try to stay updated more here, and just looking for some support from those who have been going through the same stuff as me! God Bless, Deborah
