Have somone bring you ear plugs ASAP and hopefully they can transfer you to another room soon.

I hope you feel better soon. I know this has been a real scare, but thankfully they caught it. My prayers are with you.

I was told that bypass was an option for me also. First option was to let it heal on its own, which is the choice I picked and so far so good.

A leak can be caused by several reasons besides food. Don't beat yourself up over a nacho whatever you do..very doubtful that caused it. Keep us posted,,I'm right there with ya girl..I'm home but still on tpn and antibiotics (thought my line would come out today but nope)

Oh I am sending lots of prayers! Hang in there! KNOW that many people will try and say you did this to yourself, etc but that isn't the case! I know you have been taking care of yourself - these things happen, possibly was there from the beginning and the symptoms just took a while. Feel free to message me if you need to vent.

I had no idea that yellow bile was a symptom of a leak - guess I had that one! No one seemed too concerned about it at the time. Ugh. I didn't have a stent, he did talk about it some, I think that was going to be the next step when I finally had a good upper GI showing my leak was healed. I wasn't offered the bypass - LOL honestly probably would have jumped on it at that point I was so freaked out. Glad they didn't give me the option. I probably would have went nuts with a roommate at that point. I highly recommend checking the difference in semi-private and private rooms - it cost me $180 for a week out of pocket my first stay, 2nd stay apparently I was sick enough to justify it and they paid 100% for private.

(((((HUGS))))

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
