 Riverton, UT Member Since: 10/10/11 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/8/12 4:11 pm I tried to go to work today. After one hour I was so sick I ended up back in the ER. My lab work from my PCP yesterday was all over the place. They said I had metabolic acidosis, but they repeated the labs and they were a little better. I received 2 L of fluid and some more Zofran. They called my surgeon and he is doing an endoscopy first thing in the morning. At this point, I'm hoping for a stricture. If its normal I don't know what I'll do. I can't eat and can barely drink fluids. I'm pretty miserable.  Start weight 226. Surgery weight 218 on 1/6/12  |

 Member Since: 04/06/10 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/8/12 7:59 pm Sending as much positive energy your way as I can. As others have said strictures can be easily fixed and you will feel amazing afterwards ( I am sticking to the thought that. It's a stricture and not anything else) |
