Complicated

Jul 22, 2016

3 month follow ups revealed overall normal nutrition despite the fact I can barely eat. 

Of course they want to know why so I get to have a CT (with contrast to rule out structure. Woohoo) and a month of carafate and omeprazole. 

Then my parathyroid hormone is off the charts (112 with the normal range being 12 to 64) so I get to see endocrinology.

I'm not trying to complain. I never complain. In fact I was kind of scolded for not being in better contact with them about the tough time I was having. 

I just wish that my recovery wasn't reading like a checklist or potential complications. 

I try to focus on the 35 lbs I've lost since surgery and the 64 since starting the program.
