Why do we do Dumb ass things?
on September 19, 2007 7:00 pm
Tonight I made breakfast for dinner.  It smelled wonderful cooking.  Scrambled eggs, thick bacon, grits, cheese biscuits....yum-o!  I gave myself a teaspoon of eggs, teaspoon of grits, 2 slices of bacon and 1/2 a biscuit.  I did it right, protien first, chewed everything to a pulp, waited between bites, took about 45 minutes to eat.  10 minutes later, I barfed it all up.  I know beeter than to eat eggs!!!!!!  I love eggs, but my body no longer loves them!  Why does my mind have such a hard time remembering this??  My kids ate everything with gusto, and mom was in the john, getting rid of everything with gusto.!!!

A week late, but better late than never!

Well, last Tuesday, Sept 11, I had an upper endoscopy because of not holding anything down.  My suture granuloma had come out a good bit, but it apparently was very happy where it was, because it had not come out all the way.  Dr Rashid ended up corterizing( burning) it off.  What a wonderful feeling to be able to eat and not get sick anymore!!

Complications sux!
on September 1, 2007 9:07 pm

As we all know, having WLS is a life changing experience.  As we all know, you can have complicatons from it.  I have now had a few.  In July, Ihad a hernia repair, mesintary defect repair and found out that I have a suture granuloma. I am having a difficult time still keeping soft foods and liquids down.  Last week, my navel started hurting and by Sunday, I was in the ER at Atl Med Center.  I was running a 102 fever and had a large lump at my navel that hurt like the devil.  Well, low and behold I have an abcess from my surg in July.  I was in the hospital overnight on antibiotics and went home on Monday.  On Tuesday my abcess decided to start drainning, YUCK, while I was at work.  Needless to say it scared the CRAP out of me!  ( seeing a liquid come out of your belly button is not fun)  It has almost gone completely away now, Thank God, but it does remind oneself of what I have gone thru and what I will continue to go thru on this journey.
