WHAT'S HAPPENING?
No Judy, it wasn't from the surgery...
I have had a lifelong history of UTI's to the point where most are asymptomatic. However, I got one in January that made itself know & went thru 2 cycles of antibiotics. I didn't follow thru & go back to doc to make sure it was gone & began feeling very tired, having night fevers & flu-like symptoms in mid-February which I attributed to side affects from my flu shot. I never really got sick sic****il mid-March & went into the ER. The 1st time all they diagnosed was the UTI & sent me home. Two days later I was really sick & went back to ER & bloodwork indicated I was becoming septic. They believe the UTI I had was never cured & bacteria continued to grow until it got in my bloodstream.
They had to do 2 emergency surgeries to get the bacteria out. Ugh!
Anyhow, enough of THAT!
I agree about what I call the high school games, however, I have blocked the member who PM'd me about another member. She is back on this board & it appears others have had similar issues with her. I don't need the drama so I don't want to deal with her!
Julia, I have my 5th year cancer check up in January 2018. I always find it nerve-wracking to go for that appointment. Always afraid of a reoccurrence. So I wish you luck!

This is way over my fifth year check up. I do get a little nervous, but after so long I am just eager to get each check up done. I had an intestinal blockage last year that was related to my WLS. When it happened I felt it. Apparently it took a while to block completely, but I didn't realize anything until nothing was moving through at all. I was so sick, I lost 17 pounds in one week. If you ever start throwing up nonstop, think of this. I waited too long to push for surgery. If it ever happens again I'll be requesting a weight loss surgeon immediately.
Hi ladies,
Im still here. I had vacation a couple weeks ago to south Carolina for a week. Im invited to go again at Christmas time. My friends daughter is having a baby.
The weather has been good in michigan. Not super hot. Monday it's only getting to be high of 66 so it probably feel cold to me.
I got a bike yesterday. At least i didn't fall flat on my face when I rode it.
My SIL was diagnosis with liver cancer. She starts chemotherapy on Tuesday.
That's about all for me.
Hi Yvonne,
Lucky you!!! Rick wants to go back to the Carolina's soooooooooo bad!!! LOL Glad you had a good time there!! AND Going Back Again!!!! WOW!!!
Where in Michigan are you again? I saw some parts had flooding so bad that parts of roads are washed away!!
I had two bikes and Rick sold one when I was taking care of mom. I can't ride them at all anymore. The tops of my leg area hurt so much I can't get any further than around to the other side of the office. And that is NOT far!! I even tried a bike with 20 some different speeds...nope that didn't help either. So I guess I am not meant to ride a bike anymore.
Will keep your sister in my prayers. You also.
