I had my 6 mo check up but nothing since then as I lost my health ins. I've been to the ER twice since then, once because my feet were completely numb and I had a B1 defeciency and once because my neck glands were the size of baseballs and they said my sodium levels were way low and to eat more salt.
I finally called my surgeon and said I need help without ins, he said they might work with me.
I just want to know my levels.
I was in a car accident 1 mo ago and they said I had a 7mm tumor on my right lung as I happened to have a CT scan from it. I just got my pap mear result from last week and it is said to be abnormal cells and to follow up.
I feel like I am dying am nobody is helping me.
I am so sad.
I would have rather been fat and had my health.
I am skinny and have nothing.
Is there anyone that can relate and help me?

I doubt a tumor in your lung is related to the surgery, or an abnormal pap smear.
I wish you a rapid recovery.

Prayers coming your way.
I don't think that the tumor or pap has anything to do with WLS.
Keep taking your vitiamins and protein up so that you can heal from whatever treatment you have coming up.
Call the hospital and ask what type of support groups they have. Also ask about what type of financial aid they have.
Good Luck,
Robin

I would talk to a social worker at your hospital.  There must be some financial aid available from some agency to help pay for some of your workup.  I will remember you in my prayers.  Daisy

I am sorry to hear that you are so down and I will keep you in my prayers that all will be fine.  In your post you seem to blame all this on your WL surgery....did you ever stop to think that it just may be the WL surgery that will save your life?  What if you did not have the surgery and still carried around all the excess fat--The Dr's may not have found the abnormal cells nor the tumor which by the way is always considered a  mass even if it is benign.  If you had not had the wl surgery you may still be walking around not even knowing what was brewing on the inside and that you were a walking time bomb.  At least now you are able to have this taken care of should need be and get back to the healthy you once again.  Good luck with everything and I pray that we will hear good news from you shortly.  KEEP THE FAITH!
