Three Weeks Post Op

Well, I have been "bandless" for three weeks now and I am learning to adjust to the gastric plication. I have had some strange things happen - like dumping - like nausea/sweats/weakness/confusion ! WTH. I don't know what is going on. I don't have my little tummy buddy telling me to STOP EATING. I eat small amounts - feel bloated and miserable and move on. I have not lost an ounce but haven't gained either. I am having to get B12 shots and take large amount of B1 to rebuild my body as my numbers are off. I feel like I am out on a limb and someone is sawing the limb off at the tree. I feel so darn lost. I have a new doctor and that doesn't help. I am trying to build a new relationship with him and his office staff but this is just not fair.

 

I am in hopes things will begin to improve soon. I see the new doctor on the 27th so I will keep you guys posted. This is a rollercoaster that just doesn't stop!!!

I'm praying that this becomes better for you. Do you have a plan in place if you have to see someone before the 27th? It just seems like a little while away still when you aren't feeling well.

Feeling better. Saw the doctor on the 27th and the pain was just "healing pain", Still working on not over eating and I meet with the dietician next week to get a new plan in place. Take care and thanks for asking.
