Buyers Remorse
Aug 21, 2011
Up until now, when asked if I have ever regretted having the surgery, I have always answered No & that I would do it all over if I had to. Well my friends, that is no longer my feelings towards the surgery. I don't want to discourage anyone from making a decision that is right for them but if I had to go through it again... I wouldn't! I am 3 years & 4 months post op.. I have to pack a insulin injection with me at all times because my sugar levels are dangerously low. Not just a passing out low, but coma/death low! I was told I was lucky I wasn't dead from it already. Those are always nice words to hear. So in order to keep my levels up, I HAVE to eat.. in doing so, I have regained about 35-40 pounds. I have to take B-12 shots (which is common with the surgery) also Vit d & biotin.My hair has fallen out & in all honest, I am just miserable. I had more energy when I was at 300 pounds than I do now. I use to have high blood pressure & now I am on medication to make sure my levels don't go to low while I sleep. My muscle mass in my legs is gone! I have knots & no muscle and it hurts to walk. With all this going on, its just so depressing! The Endocrinologist said I need a revision of the surgery, I just dont know if thats a possibilty or not. I honestly don't know what to do at this point. I guess pray is all I can do.I wish the rest of you the best of luck though.
