WONDERING

Aug 29, 2011

Today marks 3 weeks since I had the sleeve surgery.  I have been soooooo sick.  I also had pain in my leg and they thought I probably had a blood clot so I had to go to the hospital.  Turns out that one of the main 3 veins in my legs was/is inflamed.  Leave it to me to be fruit.  

I am having so much trouble, but at least now it doesn't feel like I have the intestinal flu, something stuck in my chest, and pleurosy all at the same time....now it just feels like everytime I put something in, fluids or food, that it gets stuck right in the middle of my chest....nauseated 24/7 most of the time.  

I figure, and so does the nurse, that it has to do with all my health issues, and as she said, "everyone has a different story." She said my symptoms sounded so much like hers when she had surgery.

Just wishing it would get easier, and know in time it will.   But with the way it feels, I am not getting in near the fluids or food that I am supposed to.   Don't know what I can do differently though, so I will keep plugging along.

Have lost a little over 25 lbs  (this includes the weight I lost during the 2 weeks before surgery on the liquid diet) and blood pressure under control.  Praying more of my health issues will subside.

Anyone that has suggestion, that would be great. 

God bless all and best of luck to all.
