Im 29 years old i wieght 283 lbs and 5'2".
I was schedule for the gastric sleeve march 29th 2013. On March 25, 2013 I was having very painful abdominal pain, the following morning I went to the er, I was there for about 9 hours to have the dr. Tell me I was about 10 days pregnant. ( my husband and I have been trying for about 7 years to get pregnant the drs have been saying im not ovulating because of my wieght) I was so excited... but that meant no sleeve. I have been doing the liquid diet and only had 4 days until surgery. I lost 11 lbs.
April 2, 2013 the pain was back with vengeance and I was schedule for an ultrasound that day anyways so I just waited until my appointment. Well come to find out I was having an ectopic pregnancy and it burst in my tube and I needed emergency surgery. I have never had surgery in my life and I thought that any surgery I would have would be the sleeve.
So I had the surgery it took me 9 weeks to recover. The Dr. Had to cut me open do to losing a lot of blood. In the high note I was able to get pregnant!
Im all healed now and rescheduled for surgery July 19, 2013 im 4 days in to the liquid diet now and so anxious but scared the pain was horrible from the other surgery, im worried the sleeve is going to be hurt as bad.
I have a very low pain tolerance, can anyone describe the pain so I can get some sort of idea on what to expect.??
