I was very dehydrated

I went to ER on Thursday night. They pumped in 2 bags of IV fluids

I feel so much better!

My heart rate is still low' date=' but doing pretty good getting liquids in again.

I don't know why, the further I get dehydrated, the harder it is to get in my liquids.< /p>

I have a followup today with my family dr and I go to the cardiologist next friday. I am anxious to see what the holter monitor showed.

While I was at the ER, the monitor kept going off because my heart rate was too low[/quote']

Aww hope your feeling better

I am glad to hear you are doing better. I hope you can get some answers from the cardiologist about your slow heart rate. You may need to find a cardiac specialist called an Electrphysiologist. They specialize in the heart's electrical system. Most cardiologists are plumbers rather than electricians! LOL! Keep working on staying hydrated. It's your job now!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
