9 days post op what a wild ride
I had RNY bypass 3/27 was D/C home Thurs 3/29. Back to ED and readmitted 3/30 with an ileus. D/C home again 4/1 to discover I am lactose intolerent. Sent my husband on a mad dash to CVS to get some lactaid..FYI this stuff really works quickly!!! 4/2 had such bad hypoglycemia I was afraid I would end up back in the ED. I am not diabetic but my system was all screwed up. I have been on teh mend since then and am now off my pain meds and back to work 1/2 days. I seem to be having a little trouble keeping up with water. I have a water bottle in my hands constantly and I'm still thirsty! I have to say I was a little down after the hypoglycemia but I feel like I have turned the corner now and I say BRING IT ON! I'm ready for what ever comes my way. I can't believe the difference already. I weighed 223 on surgery day and 206 this am!
