I Will pray for your recovery... Hang on

Ty so much 4longer, I'm doing great now ...moved to regular diet. The worst has passed things to god. Ty everyone for your support and prayers

I had my surgery on the 4 of January. One month ago my doctor told me I have a leak, abcess. Since then I'm on NPO and 3 weaks on TPN . I had some ups and downs but i took it and was taking it day by day. Now 2 days ago after a GI X-ray they informed me it healed by itself. I started one day of clear liquids and today full liquid I'm supposed to be released tomorrow. Now I have this pain in my stomach and I feel like throwing up...and I'm so scared its not over yet. Please those who had a leak did you experience any of this .. I say to myself maybe it's just bcoz I didn't eat for more than one month my stomach is adjusting but I m scared of the worse. I have a release from hospital from 4 pm to 9 pm everyday I just don't wanna go there I'm frightened .

Than k you for your support ....it's over now I'm healed thank god.. As they say in France I'm saine et sauve

I had my sleeve on 4th jan 2012 was not easy but it's really worthed....I lost 17 kg up to now. Went from 98 to 81kg.... One week ago I felt really sick fever, shivering. I was unable to put anything in my mouth ....doctor told me its viral. took paracetamol and bruffen. After that now o e week I can't eat nothing...I drink juice ,water and that's it. If I put anything I will throw it up I feel that food can't go down anymore...tomorrow. My appointment is next week ... Please If you had this before, share with me...I have no idea what's going on

You were absolutely right about swallowing after a NPO... I was just terrified that the nightmare was not over yet ...but thank god I'm feeling better now. No more pain or vomiting or worrying... I'm thankful to god its over and glad I found this site

Thank you for the replies They did a CT Scan it showed no leak no abcess...the doctor said everything is fine. Gave me omeprozal and another one for heart burn. Went home yesterday took them and threw up everything ...I was a mess. This morning I took them but diluted in a bit of water ate 1/2 cup of cereals....I'm struggling to keep it inside. Back to hospital.i will ask the doctor for endoscopy.

Thank you all for your support. It's uplifting you have no idea Yep no symptoms can you imagine? , no vomitting at first,no shoulder pain, no abdominal pain, no nothing. I was hsving little discomfort after eating but i said to myself maybe i ate too much.That was the problem and the doctors were like wow I had Only fever and since we had a flu around the house I said maybe I got it...the only indication is that my eating was diminishing little by little until I couldn't eat anymore and I started vomiting. I did another GI no leak apparent but the doctor told me to be in the safe side we gotta put the stent. And I'm waiting because it's not available it's coming from US. I have a release now in the evening to go see my children. I'm doing fine over all. Yesterday I went shopping I stayed out for 5 hours and it went fine. Let's take it day by day.

Thank you Iliana.

Now 13days in hospital. I still have nothing by mouth I'm on feeding tubes. All wired I feel like frankenstein . It's not fun anymore but I read it's still a long way ahead. I'm so depressed coz I don't what to expect : they say thery are gonna put the stents but I'm still waiting. Will it heal? How long? When are they gonna remove the drains? All these questions with no answers. It sucks when you feel you have no control. I still have only 8kg to lose to reach my target weight I have lost 20 kg so far ...please those of you out there who had a leak, tell me how did you do?

Thank you all for your concern. Yesterdey was my leak surgery, more fear than pain .it went good.next? The only good thing about all this is that Hospital gown I wore was size small.

Thank for your replies... You were right I ended up in emergency room . I never felt this bad in y life. Like zombie, not eating for 10 days and not drinking even Water I was unable to take. And the cause I had a whole stomach infection, abscess as big as 3cm , and a leak and with all this I had NO PAIN the doctors were wow. But really I didn't feel pain that's why I was not concerned about leaking bcoz they say the first symptom is stomachache . Anyway I'm under heavy antibiotics, they sucked out the pus,nothing by mouth for one week. I'm feeling a lot better but scared for what might come next. I'm praying god that this will the end of the suffering.

Also I have this spasms like contraction in my stomach every now and then
