I was sleeved sept 10 this year. I'm really getting out and about again, walking, and just feel good. Starting weight 188 today 168 not much but it's okay I know what I need to do to lose better, walk way more and bring my bike back to my room. I've got 35 lbs to go I'm 5'3".

The only thing that takes that brick in my tummy is a nice brisk walk sleeved 9/10 off to a slow start but I'm feeling okay about it since I'm doing pretty much what I was told to do. I need to get someone (nut) I live far from the city and my town doesn't have one, I got sleeved out of state.

I just stopped having a couple days ago but I've had complications first I had a bleed I was sleeved on September 10 this year, so doc had to go back in after I first almost died when I code purple and was then rushed back into surgery doc fixed the bleed after taking out 2 units of my blood then transfusing me with 4 units that I had to have so I ended up staying from Tuesday to Friday so I go home still nauseous until two weeks later when I woke up and told my hubby call 911 I felt like I was going to die I'd never been so sick with nausea, lost my muscle strength so I couldn't walk, fever, cold clammy skin, couldn't breath, non stop throwing up and the runs, I just couldn't handle it staying hour after hour being so sick running test after test, MRI with and without contrast then another with dye all the while sicker then ever, ER finally called my surgeon before they did another emergency surgery, turns out I had a severe allergic reaction to the blood I wAs given which can happen and doesn't mean the old was necessarily bad but means my body was trying to fight the blood as a foreign substance causing all the complications this would have not been so bad if my doc would have let me know complications that could happen after a blood transfusion, needleS to stay the misery stopped after two days. What's bad is my starting weight was 188 and I've only gotten down to 173 and have been stuck their ever since. I have a feeling I'm doomed and won't ever lose my remaking 40 lbs, I'm disappointed which is heart breaking I need to know exactly what to eat and drink I walk daily, plus exercise please anyone with advice please HELP ME. I'm willing to try any suggestions feeling sad in arizona, my surgery wAs in Nevada so I've had 0 follow up with dr umbach. thanks for listening sleeve family. Anyone else in arizona would like to meet up? -

sukiaoloni replied to AutumnPunkin's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
My stomach is doing good as long as I take my Prilosec the first few days were rough but I took Zoloft and its all been great, my doc also advised the other procedure I'm glad I stuck with my plan of sleeve. Good luck to you. -

sukiaoloni replied to McButterpants's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I had my surgery Sept 10, I had a horrible experience I nearly died, dr umbach tells me I'm the only one that's ever had this happen. I was leaking it turn out, he did blood tests that I know now showed him I was bleeding yet he waited till I code purpled 38 over 18 to repair a leak took out two units of blood and I needed 4 units put back in me. My surgeries were on a Tuesday and I didn't leave till Friday, hopefully you have someone with you with a voice or else it takes an act of congress for them to move to do anything, the only nurse I thought was wonderful was rexal the nighttime male nurse. The others are okay just pretty dirty place and lazy Were are the other people who said bad stuff happened and what happened? -
Thank you joe, I want to succeed. I will succeed.

I lost ten pounds since the 4th day and no more, I walk everyday, very lil pain if any, itchy, get very nauseous with my water and only been having about 40 protein and 6 12 0z waters also I'm already taking supplements, I must really be messing up any quick suggestions?

One of the things I should of mentioned is the night I got sleeved I almost died, doc says I must have been leaking, I just kept feeling worse by the second and so much pain doc ended up taking out two liters out and says he had to put 4 in, my blood pressure dropped to 38 over 18 I code purpled, I think your right about the trauma, I kept thinking what did I do to myself, now I feel so good I think I also need to push myself to more walking then I'm doing, I guess it's all just a matter if figuring things out. I really enjoy this forum I think it's going to be very helpful for a lot of people.
