An update on me...
I totally understand how you feel. I've been dealing with health issues myself. I get angry because losing weight was supposed to make me healthy and I'm having problems. Then I realize that I'd be far worse if I was still overweight with these same problems.
Hang in there. Your friends are here for you when you need them.. (or on facebook).

Here I am throwing myself a pity party and know how much health problems you have been thru. I want you to know that I will also keep you in my prayer and know that god looks out for good people and this too shall pass...

People comment on my over 100 pound weight loss and attribute it to my WILLpower, but it is my WANTpower: I WANT to be thin and healthy more than anything else!
Shilpa,
You know you can vent. And def sending you hugs and thoughts and prayers. BUT...as a healthcare professional, even though your kidney function has declined slightly since the hospital, this post seems to be a good thing, not a pity party.
You aren't spiking fevers as much now, correct?
You are out of the hospital.
E Coli and stuff like that can play a nasty part in things and you will need time to recover from that. You'll get there.
And yes, everything doesn't work 100% in 100% of the population. It doesn't mean the body can't function or can't maintain it. It is totally normal in some people.
Hang tough!
Thank you so much your word of wisdom has helped me out so much in the past and you are correct my fevers have resolved themselved and my docs are top notch and are on top of things so I am in good hands. I will keep everyone updated on what the future holds..

I am sending you tons of hugs right now. I totally understand your frustration, and do not consider your post a pity party. Like Nurse Pam says, you are improving, just not at the speed you would like. Keep following your doctors' orders, and be sure to get your protein and water in. Protein helps to build, and rebuild, cells.
I empathize with your desire to be 100%.
Hugs,

Thank you. I understand that if anybody understand how I feel right now you do. I totally agree that I do need to get all my protein and water intake in to keep myself healthy. I have been doing that it's just that I am such a physical person and the inability to push myself (exercise wise) is putting me in a depression but I am following doctor's orders and taking it easy as to not end up in the hospital again.
