Surgery

Rate this Entry
Hey everyone i had my surgery on the 8th and have had problem since. I have had to have an additional procedure done on Friday the 18th. I have not been able to keep food or drink down. I went in on the 18 and had my throat re stretched and had a repeat EGD done he said i was super tight and things should start getting better. I cant keep any protein drinks down I can keep some jello but it is very painful. I have been off of work for 2 weeks and today is my first day back.

    I know you're trying to stay positive, and I wish you well with that. Unfortunately, that statement isn't true. It can and does get worse sometimes. Stay on top of it, Kari. I'm sure you've read enough of the horror that my daughter and I have gone through. It all started for us with not being able to get stuff down or keep it down. About a month and a half in is when it got really bad for both of us, so make sure you keep on your doctor's ass if things don't start getting better. Do your very best to get your vitamins in. Thiamine (B1) is critical...at least lack of that one is what did so much damage to my kid's brain.

    Take good care of yourself, and check in often. All the best to you.
