Almost 9 years Post Op

Aug 02, 2010

Wow Time sure is flying by Fast. Well I finally found out today im not going crazy, For the last year I have been telling my PCM at the Army Hospital here that im in pain 24/7 and they just keep blowing me telling me that nothing is wrong, So a few weeks ago i threw down the nasty tempertantrum and I got a referral to see a Gastric Bypass Surgeon , Well He is part of a whole crew of people that specialize in gastric Bypass, Well low and behold they tell me im not crazy and that is a Hole in my stomach they called it something else that started with F . So for this wholle year if my PCM would have listened to me and order and endeoscope this problem would have been found so much sooner. So i go back in August 12th to see the surgeon and set an Appointment for surgery

So here are my Stats I weighed in at 135, im up 10 pounds, but that is also fully dressed and i had lunch. Im Iron is Bottomed out and Now we are working at getting it up, She told me my other blood work looked really good. She also told me that between the hole in my stomach and the pain that im in could be the cause of my 10 pounds that i have gained or it could be the 10 pound rebound, anyways my goal is working on getting it back off. She said she was very impressed that i have kepted the weight off,  164 pounds gone and i refuse to let it come back. She invited to go to thier support group and share my story and I think i will. She says she has a few people that just havnt taken this surgery seriously and gained half thier weight back.
