Two Years...

Dec 12, 2010

Friday will be two years since my surgery / new life.  Thursday I go to the doctor for my check up.  There are some issues that I need help with:
 

• Have trouble eating meals, at first, (not all the time). It starts with pain around the sternum, (the stomach hurts) and then I have to burp a lot. After a few minutes I can start eating again and finish my meal with no other problems. Junk food always goes down without a problem. Main problem is protein type foods. 

• Other times I can start eating okay but get the foamies and have to vomit to relieve the pain / discomfort. After eating my meal. This mainly happens when eating meats by themselves, (not a casserole type food). Steak or BBQ or Chicken.

• When I wake up, don’t get to much good sleep, my insides feel sore. Along with that I wake up in the night feeling like I have severe heart burn but after I urinate the pain goes away, (after awhile) or take antacid and it goes away quicker. This hardly ever happens during the day.

My weight is staying between 200-205.  I am not working to lower it just maintaining.  Can't wait to see the results of my blood work.  I still feel like blood work needs to be done every six months, not a year.  I am going to start having mine done every six months even if I don't have a doctor's visit.  Will post the results next week.
