Just updating
Last week I was really feeling ill. I was bloated and nauseous and had a touch of the Big "D". I was also getting a small metallic taste in my mouth and so I figured I was getting an ulcer. Ulcers were the cause of my first surgery failing. Plus I was still having neuropathy in both legs. I saw the PCP and he sent me back to the surgeon. I saw him and a neurologist today. HOORAY I do not have an ulcer. It was probably from eating something too large and it got stuck. No pain now from the stomach. The neurologist did an EMG test and there is some nerve damage - S1. This is from being so heavy pre op. I had one done in 1999 right before I went into the hospital from the deficiency and I have actually improved. I have also lost 98 lbs. 2 to go for the Century club. YEEHAWW
