I could say a lot of things like 'this too shall pass' and 'try to stay positive' and all that motivating & encouraging stuff.  But I won't.  I'll just say:  You're right - that sucks.  I'm really sorry for what you're going through.

Wow.  I am sorry you are going through this.  Seems to be quite a few people having issues right now :(

I hope the scope tomorrow morning finds something and you can start healing !

 Ah, it sounds horrible.  I hope things get better soon.  Don't give yourself a hard time though since hindsight is 20/20.  You had no way of knowing that you would be one of the unlucky ones that had this kind of complication.

Yep I am with them, I had a complication two but was only in the hospital for 6 days. and they don't know why.....(threw up blood so got a second surgery to look for leaks but there wasn't any) I was thinking "what did I do to myself! I asked for it!" and of course wishing the clock would go back....but now I am better and starting to feel great, and the weight is slowing coming off so I say yes it will most likley get better just HANG IT THERE! You can do it! and get the prize after all the hell! 

I hope you feel better very soon!!!>>>sending luck!!

I will join in and wish you well and say that it really does suck the big one!  You must be feeling really discouraged, frustrated, angry and resentful to say the least and as well:  I signed up for this - I must be crazy or something.

My husband was in hospital for aortic valve surgery and had to be re-admitted after being home for two days as he developed an infection (that was never really diagnosed) and his sternum was not healing back together.  He had to stay in hospital for 14 days the second time and he got very, despondent and depressed.  Doc says it usually happens around the 10Th day of hospitalization.  Tell them you are struggling emotionally and don't be shy about it either.  The staff are wonderful but they go home after 8 hours or so.  Maybe a few hours out on a pass would help.  Hang in Leafsfan....have they started to play yet? (now that would be depressing to watch lol).....just kidding
