Are there any south Florida support meetings?
-
So it's been 3 months. 3 weeks after surgery was hospitalized with severe dehydration. A week later I was scoped and dilated. Then we started cts and ultra sounds and on 5/12 we did a gallbladder surgery and he went back in to look at the sleeve to make sure it wasn't twisted which it wasn't. Then a week after a got out of hospital I'm back in for infection and dehydration. I'm still not eating. Drinking about 24 oz of fluid a day and still on liquid diet. Saw doc on Friday and he talking about paralyzed stomach. Feeding tubes into intestines and going to bypass. He now wants me to stop shakes and focus on water only. I drank 5 oz yesterday. 6 oz today. He wants 7 oz tomorrow. I am malnourished hair is falling out and nails are riding up of nail bed. He is no doing b12 shots hoping to help with the malnourishment. Can anyone relate?

So I had another endoscopy yesterday which shows that my entire stomach doesn't move nor my small bowel or part of my lower intestines. Really don't know what is going on but I know I need a feeding tube.

No it's not had test yesterday it's that the bottoms of my stomach isn't moving so not empty. Complication from surgery

Did u like them. ?

I got antibiotics from the last time I was in hospital doc doesn't think it's an infection. I'm getting my records and getting a 2 nd opinion bc my mum wants one in Tennessee at Erlanger but have to get the docs office to fax them to erlanger. That's going to be stressful.

So seeing GI today. Did upper GI on Monday which showed a slowing at the bottom of Stomach to intestines. Don't really no what that means though.

I'm with dr Wizman to but in Wellington and he doesn't run then the nurse does and she isn't good it's all about fund raising and not talking about issues. It's not a support group. Coral Springs is too far. I'm in west palm.

No. They don't. Only one answer is he could of cut a nerve in surgery or I'm failing to thrive. He doesn't no.
