And I'm still sick as a dog. I can't work and am on disability. I have sever nausea every day can't eat or drink bc it all comes up. I swear I see no light at the end of the tunnel

Have they checked you for a stricture? How are you getting nutrients and hydration in? How did you get disability approved after 2 weeks? Have you go e to another surgeon to ask for a second opinion?

Very sorry you are going through all this!!

Every day is better than the day before...and it was a pretty great day!

Perhaps she meant short term Disability, I am going on that through my work so I get paid until I return to work.

Why would they let you go home?!  The docs must be absolutely CRAZY!

So sorry you are still struggling!! I've been keeping up with your progress (or lack of) and I can't imagine how exhausted you are by now!  I hope you start feeling better very soon!

What is your doctor telling you about WHY you are having trouble, and what is he doing for you?  You should not be suffering like this!

Thanks everyone for your replies. All they can tell me is my nerves aren't healed and it keeps telling my brain to vomit everything. I'm pretty sure when I see dr mon I will go back to hospital bc I'm malnourished and dehydrated but I am going to request to be sent to a better hospital called UC Davis bc maybe those drs can help me more.

UCSF has a medical school hospital doesn't it? I'd look into that, too! You poor thing!!
