If was done as emergency surgery Sunday morning. By the time he got in there the bleeding had stopped so we don't know the source of the bleeding. He expected that but saiid it was important to clean out the blood as it would have caused additional problems like a leak. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chelan 7 Posted December 18, 2013 Why were you rushed to the hospital, you have never really explained what caused it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taylokat 180 Posted December 18, 2013 <p>Why were you rushed to the hospital, you have never really explained what caused it?</p> He was feeling weak, and by the time he got to the ER his BP was dangerously low....he had internal bleeding but by the time they took him for surgery the bleeding stopped so they don't know exactly where the bleeding was from.

Andrew0929 1,101 Posted December 20, 2013 Thanks again for everything, everyone!! I'm feeling pretty good now, 5 days out from my second surgery and 10 days out from my sleeve surgery. Feeling some pressure in my stomach area but I wouldn't call it pain. After coming home from sleeve surgery I really felt great and it wasn't until 4 days out when I had the internal bleeding problem. So, while I'm feeling pretty good now (again), I'm also very much so on-guard this time. 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
