Extreme Dehydration

[crazy4pluto 2]

ok, well i had my second stricture stretch procedure done on april 17th to stretch the scar tissue in my stomach that is preventing me from eating anything but pureed/soft foods and then on april 23rd was admitted to the hospital for 5 days because i hadn't eaten in 2 weeks and drank in 2 days. to say i was dehydrated was an understatement. today was my first day back at work since having 10 saline solution bags and 10 electrolight/nutrition bags and everyone said how good i looked. guess i didn't really realize how bad it had gotten. i have to really learn the signs of when i am getting into trouble before i get into too much trouble. i crossed the 100# weight lost goal twice this month due to gaining 4 pounds after all that Fluid was pumped into me. somehow it seems so anticlimatic. you strive to hit that 100# mark and i'm glad i did but i've been so sick since jan that it's hard to Celebrate loosing any of the weight anymore. i still have 70 pounds i'd like to lose but to be honest as sick as i have been if i didn't lose any more--i'd still be glad i had the sleeve done in dec 2011 and i'd be happy right where i am because without the sleeve i may not be here at all. best of luck to everyone.

I'm glad you are starting to feel better and I hope they can get you healed and fully recovered soon. You are one courageous gal to have gone through so much and still have such a beautiful attitude. Best wishes to you.
