I was rushed to the hospital last night via ambulance after experiencing severe pain and nausea, in the middle of a snowstorm.<br><br>

My blood pressure was 60/25 which I'm told is extremely dangerous. Pumped me with fluids and BP came up to 107/55.<br><br>

Cat scan revealed bleeding and they are still not sure what's going on. May have more surgery. Pain is still pretty bad.

Oh no! Saying prayers for you!

Carrie

severe pain and nausea

andrew

saw your posts from day 3 when you had low grade fever, stomach gurgling problems issues - now nausea, pain, very low blood pressure :(

glad you stayed on top of this and realized "something" wasn't right :wacko:

we always need to listen to our bodies!!!!

they will tell you what you need/should do

don't ignore any signs et al - call doc or if needed go immediately to ER

hope things get figured out soon

I'm so sorry "if" surgery is necessary :(

I hope with meds, your pain situation improves

take care of yourself

healing thoughts going your way :)

Andrew! How flipping scary...that BP is sooooooo low. I'm glad you called for help when you did (to hell with the blizzard!!). Too many people wait thinking they'll start to feel better... you will bounce back in no time with an extra staple or two and some more super glue. (sorry I have a very dark sense of humor). {{{gentle hugs}}}

      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.
