Mrs. Lincoln replied to Mrs. Lincoln's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Have you looked at any topical applications? Maybe some Retnin-A. I can imagine the fluids will make the most difference. Congrats on being so close to goal, hopefully everything levels out soon. Actually I haven't looked into that yet, good tip. The thing is it comes and goes. Its really weird. Guess its time for some good concealer! Lol!! -
Sleeve complication
Mrs. Lincoln replied to Mrs. Lincoln's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Absolutely sepsis is definitely nothing to play with. I thank God for his healing. But realize I still have quite a ways to go. Keeping my eyes open on how I feel daily is key!! -
I'm so sorry you have gone thru all these complications. I too have had complications but my leak was contained and I developed sepsis, it was the sticu for me and couldn't see my baby either it was horrible... No operations needed, but still struggling with the weakness and just overall feeling not like myself..just got home yesterday from heart palpitations and dehydration... I hope things get better for you..its a bumpy road but the Good Lord will get you thru this..praying for complete healing for you..

Nausea and Fatigue
Mrs. Lincoln replied to tross10779's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Be very cautious if the nausea doesn't go away I would follow up with my Dr. I thought it was normal when I felt that way. Nausea and weak @week 3...ended up being sepsis due to a small leak.....if you don't feel right seek help... -
I have been having the same issues as you..I had my surgery 12/22/15, and still am on period. Its really annoying just worried when it will stop since I'm anemic.

Just make sure you listen to your body..if you don't feel something is right go to the e.r...please..the Dr's think I had the sepsis for a total of 2 weeks..if I would have waited any longer..well...I may not have made it.. Glory to God he has been my rock???? -

Complications....so broken and sadden
Mrs. Lincoln replied to boojak2003's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm new on here and I just wanted to share on 1/28 I felt horrible. I was extremely cold, and couldn't stop shaking to the point I could hardly drive.I came home and covered myself with 3 blankets and couldn't warm up called the surgeon and began to puke. Needless to say I was rushed to the e.r where I was running a 101.5 fever and bp was really high. Ct scan showed fluid and air in my abdominal cavity. Swallow test showed no leak. They ruled it a once abscess or pinhole leak that healed itself..spent 2 days in the sticu Npo since I was soooo nauseous and another 3 floor level where I was so weak nauseous and dizzy that I had to have help to do anything. Oh did I mention I was sepsis. 5 days of intense antibiotics and loads of iv fluids. All my levels evened out.. And now I'm on 2 different antibiotics... Only thing that seems unsettling to me is why no drain to remove the "liquid", I was told that they were guaging how I felt to send me home..which I was better but I still am uneasy about this... I know these are the best Dr's in Houston but it just doesn't sound right...help!
