My Dr admitted me yesterday' date=' we are doing lots of tests and I will have to get a pic-line because my veins are all collapsing when they try to get an IV started. The fall really aggravated the pain and I am not able to eat. I am back on Clear liquids. I'm sorry I'm not here to support you all, I'm still in a lot of pain. They did an ultrasound of he kidneys to see how big the stones are, they did an ultrasound of my legs to look for blood clots and they did a CT with IV contrast.....I am tired.... I can't wait till I am on my feet.....take care all.

I am overwhelmed by all the supportive messages. I am still in Parkveiw Hospital and had some kind of episode the other night. The gave me a nitro patch and did blood tests. My blood pressure was very high and my heart rate. I woke up with chest pain. So I haven't had any more blood pressure problems it is actually low now. The at giving me Tylenol every 6 hours, toridol every 6, dilaudid every 3, and a fantanyl patch. They had also been giving me demerol but I had an allergic reaction.

So they also think I have a different kind of endometriosis that goes other places in the body.....so now I have to see a gyno. They are doing an endoscopic exam tomorrow and didn't do the pic line because they only do life threatening ones on the weekend. They were able to find one in my chest.

My doctor Chin has been very patient and has made sure I don't yo home before I am ready and is doing all he can to find out what is happening. At least He is a good surgeon, I think western bariatric is such an wonderful group. I really feel that they are taking good care of me.

I am just afraid to say what else can go wrong, because something else keeps happening . I just want to be better and home with my husband and kids. I am alone here most of of the time and I feel very depressed now.. I am so glad you are all here for me. I feel like I have an extended family rooting for me, I can't tell you how much all your responses have helped me.

Hugs and thanks to you all,

Kat

Kat,

This is just a bump in the road. God love ya maybe its a hill in the road lol.

So I am a nurse and if thet give you test or results feel free to ask if I don't know I will look it up. Also be proactive and ask the nurses what tests are being done you have the right to have copies of your tests results. Or ask them to write it down. They will fix whatever is wrong then you will be home soon and this will be in your past.

Relax let the medicine work and rest your body.

Will continue to pray for you!

Gentle hugs! <3 <3

Kat Glad the surgeon is keeping you until they find the cause of your anomalies. Don't let them discharge you until you have some answers. You are in the right place. If you want any phones call let me know your room number.....lots of white light and prayers coming your way .....

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
