Serious Buyer's Remorse

Jun 09, 2009

This kind of pain is not what I signed up for.  For over 48 hours now, I have had severe cramping, bloating and other gastro-intestinal goodies (I will leave it up to you, reader, to put together the pieces on that one). I am frustrated and disheartened. Where is my excitement and euphoria? Instead I'm in too much pain to exercise, too freaked out to go to work because of bathroom urgency. I'm scared that this episode will not end.

This is not what I expected when I agreed to undergo RNY. I thought that I might have some vomiting that would quickly relieve any nausea, but persistent nausea and cramping and the "d" word were NOT on the menu. This utterly dwarfs any happy feelings I have about my 32 lb. weight loss.

I know happier days are coming. I can feel it. I had a great surgeon and overall, a great surgical experience. I suppose maybe these episodes are the result of my body adjusting to a new stomach. I just didn't think this adjustment would  affect my ENTIRE digestive tract.
