9 months post op
Jul 13, 2012
Not sure how I'm feeling about my 9 month checkup -- weight wise I was fine (still 205) BUT my labs are and have been a total unexplainable mess!!! So I clearly get enough protein but the prealbumin is still low @ 11 (up from 8). Vitamin A is now low (will take vitamins for 1 month), liver enzymes are still out of whack, and iron is not the best (switching infusions to every 2 weeks). Colleen & Dr. Steele are worried that I may have an unrelated auto-immune issue and the low blood sugar issues and a high A1C just don't fit. Still seeing oncologist, gastroenterologist, AND endocrinologist. I am soooo tired of going to the damn doctors and the lab but I am worried that something is wrong even though I feel wonderful. Anyway....staying with my current diet but trying to eat every 1 or 2 hours (and how I am suppose to get in the fluids is beyond me). Ready to start week 4 of couch to 5K, talking to a new friend from NC (no expectations -- just fun), and the new job starts Monday!!!!Loving life although a little frustrated
