Thanks for taking you time , it's true my sergeon send to do a Upper GI , he needs to do another test nexrt week to find out what's next. Know i'm in this big cold ans my artritis. I just want some goid time without pains. Take care and thanks for beings here for me.

Glad to see you post, but, very sorry you are hurting so much. Have you been able to
see or talk to your original surgeon to make sure it is not something to do with your Weight Loss Surgery. ER doc's don't always know how to fix or check into that.
Take care & hope you find answers to the pain soon.

ok dokey!
i've been learning so much about this low blood sugar its enough to make ya sick! pardon the pun..,.
did you know that part of this wonderful thing is anxiety? oh great! like I don't already worry constantly as it is about everything and have since I was a little kid! Now I can also add to it that I frequently get anixety attacks! I'm coping but not liking this more and more.
I'm holding my weight which is very difficult becasue i have to eat every 2 hours of suffer the drop in low blood sugar. its one of the things that has to be delt with along with being sure i constantly have food with me where ever i go.
you'd think that wouldn't be that bad now would it? well figure that you've just gone out to dinner eat what you were suppose to then went dancing. Can't have any alchol cause that can help to create an episode but hey i've3 never been a drinker so i can't say i miss that but how many people do you know go to a dance club have a big glass of water then pull out a protein bar? then dance a couple of dances - can't do to many of those cause Oh yea can bring on an episode BUT I need to excersize both for my health and it helps the LBS(low blood sugar)
Then before I go to bed I have to have another snack.
I eat more now than I ever did!
Now if you think about itl...l.lPlease note the sarcasm......isn't it ironic? (quote that song by jewel) Yes Isn't it ironic that I use to eat too much so I had to have sugery to makie my tummy smaller to stop me from over eating and now i have this LBS and NOW have to eat almost continulally to heal and get back to normal? arrrggggg
Ironic!
Let me tell ya its hard enough almost 5 years out to keep my weight where it is let alone now having to eat all the time.
My doc is great though she has me eating well a good mixture of good carbs, protein, vegis and fruits. certain ones of each cause there are things in regular food that can set you off with the LBS.
Ok enoughfor now time to go get ready for work and take my vitamins and homeopathic remedys!
love to all

Hi Connie...Im sorry for all you back problems....I dont know if youve tried this but my older brother has had tons of back troubles and repairs including fusions plus alot of other things....recently... they implanted like a electrode stimulator tinge circuit thing into his back to help calm his nerves down, he was getting severe nerve spams all the time runnng from back to legs, seems to be getting some relief from it...you may want to consider mentioning it to your doctor if you havent yet...might be helpful for you ( I Hope)...I know he is not on as many pain pills since hes had this done...still has pain but not nearly as bad as before. I hope you find some relief soon.
