Has anyone had their blood sugar's not come down after surgery. Mine are not high around 130 - 180. My doctor is not worried just wondering if this is common. And how lone be for your drain hole stop leaking (sorry about the gross drain hole part)
-
Update blood sugars are coming down now have to watch they don't go low. Drain hole is drying up to everything the Doctor said would happen is happening. Maybe Doctors do know a thing or two

Mslady depending on your state and your company you may be able to file for medical leave from your job and file for state disability . Don't know what state your in you may want to check with your HR Dept and state. We had a pool put in last year and the family decided to have a stay-cation this year so I could have surgery and will make it up next year and then put away as much money as we could. Good luck you will be alright

MsCook I look at food and have no desire for it. I eat Becuse I have to not Becuse I want to anymore last night it took 45 min to eat a1/2 cup of jello and a 1/4 cup of beef broth. But that will change to for I have been getting cravings I want Kraft Mac & Cheese. Yesterday I dreamed of a Ham & Cheese Sub I'm getting better or I really I'm whack-o

Amanda we all had to make that tough decision to have RNY. I'm 6 days post op feeling good pain is just about gone I'm walking my fat off. You won't regret having the surgery. I see it as being around a lot longer to see my little boy grow up and have his own kids and to just be heathy for ones in my life. You have made the Right Decision Good Luck

4 days in this mental ward they call a hospital will drive you crazy. For the room rate they charge they sure don't want you to miss anything and keep waking you up to enjoy it. Will be good to be home. My step daughter just go home from collage in Japan will be here for 4 weeks then back to school. Japanese university's don't mess around but it's a way better education then what she would get in the states. Can you tell I'm BORED.
