Back In The Hospital 3Rd Time :(



Recommended Posts

Yupp I was admitted tonight. The pneumonia is so bad that more than half my left lung is collapsed and filled with Fluid. And there is still an abcess in my belly which they can't figure out. So I keep praying and hoping God gets me through this. The doc will most likely drain my lung tomorrow then he will perform surgery and go in to get a better look at the abcess. Oh this is quite the experience.

I'm so sorry you've had all these complications I myself know exactly what it's like having pneumonia I was hospitalized for it a couple years back and almost died from it....mine was due to negligent hospital staff and had nothing to do with my rny (only 15 weeks post op) but it was horrible! I hope that they can figure everything out quickly so that you can enjoy the benefits of having rny! Take care, get lots of rest, keep us updated.......and last but not least have a speedy recovery!

So sorry to hear of your woes. When praying remember to thank the Lord for good health. Claim it before it happens and trust and believe that it WILL happen!

Also I'm sending up a healing prayer as well...be strong baby girl and all is going to be alright.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
