On the bench again
So I had my EGD, and they saw a blind stomach, but the rest looked okay. I ended up frustrated, in pain and not feeling well the next day (which is why I had the EGD and had sought out help) and went to the ER...long story short--I am home from a operation- I am guessing a revision...they had to detach my old stomach from the new one and shut off the access to the blind limb. I had gained a lot of weight because it was like having 3 stomachs. That is also why I felt crappy and like I could vomit...they say I am back to being on the losers bench. Time will tell. I tolerated it so far great- 1 day hospital stay, I have been up walking, having clear fluids. WOW- I was scared to death when he said he wanted to explore and repair if needed. I am now hopeful. I will keep in touch. Got to go get another scale soon- my toddler decided my last one needed a bath. Keep me in your thoughts and prayers...weird thinking the night before I had wings and today I have no physical desire for food, just liquids. Still in shock and scared.
Holy CRAP!!!!! OK, here is some advise for you. PLEASE, Please, PLEASE get a copy of your surgical report, so that you have it for reference, ok?
Glad you are home, and healing. I sure hope this is it for you, chickie!!!! Happy healing!!!!
