Hey Post Ops- Where are you? How are you?

I am here or I should say, back again, looking for answers..  Desperately coming back to the site, as I am regaining and I DO NOT LIKE IT! 

 

 

Somethings going on in my stomach, I go to a General Surgeon on the 28th for tests.    I think it's another hernia, but I am also having major bowel issues.   If it is anything related to my RNY almost 9 years ago, I will update.  I seriously am wanting some kind of revision and am on site, looking for answers if that is at all possible after a RNY. 

 

Other than that, I'm still grieving, as I haven't been on site, many do not know that my youngest son was murdered Sept 8, 2012 and Momma's been all kind of stressed out and just plain lonesome for my son.

Hey sweetie--so glad to see you here! I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your son. It sounds like you have lots going on...Physically and Emotionally.I am curious to hear of your bowel issues and hernia's. I have had reoccurring hernia's since I first underwent surgery in 2001; I think at last count I have had 15 hernia repairs- the last two were as recent as this summer. Why do you want a revision? I only ask because I was saying those words too about two years ago.

I changed my ENTIRE LIFE around-- I'm not talking a little "tinkering" here or there--- I am healthy and love sharing with others what I have found to be successful. There really is a quick fix--responsibility. It is not EASY or painless, it just takes courage!

Of course it is not a QUICK FIX of instantaneous "Everything is PERFECT"...or even great-- but taking responsibility for your thoughts, beliefs and actions is where freedom begins to a healthier, happier you. I do know how you can start healing...just saying! :)

Discovering long term effects that were unknown  when I had surgery. ( yes, I'd do it again) 

micronutrient malabsorption may have developed into autonomic dysfunction . For me.  specialist suggests vitamin and mineral IV therapy. Great article on symptoms . I had 15 symptoms of autonomic dysfunction / failure.  IV infusion scheduled. I hope to feel like a new woman!
