Off to the hospital again... :(

[Dr-Patient 830]

I hope things heal properly and you feel better--and well--soon. I will say a prayer for you and your medical team.

[DirtyHarriett 94]

Hope you are doing ok. You have been through so much...

[Madam Reverie 2,958]

You, my love, have the patience of a saint.

If i were you, by this stage, I'd be walking into that hospital shouting 'sort this m******** f******** s*** out. Sort it out properly, or I'm about to get medieval on someones arse....

I am so sorry this is happening to you again, RJ. All I can say is that I hope they get it done right this time and there will be no more - for you and your family.

Big hugs x

Well here is the latest........Had a 5th Cat Scan and they found the abscess was empty..But because it still hurt they decided to keep me in the hospital and run more tests.....

I am clogged up and they qare trying to open the dam....lol And now the surgeon has found that the sleeve has an ulcer and that there is a hole in it. So the Fluid runs into my mouth and down my sleeve and into the intestine..Also the intestine that vis part of my sleeve. So They gave me another Cat scan yeaterday and when they did the dye. I was on my side and it puddled in my mouth....yuck!

So the surgeon also did a scope and that is where he found the ulcer. So even though the abscess does n0ot have anything in it. If I drink or eat it goes into it and fills up....So he decided to put a bigger drain in and put me on some heavy meds to heal the ulcer and clean this mess up...The reason it hurts so much is because I have the drain under my Diaphram, And the drain touches the lung and spleen. Nerve endings scream when they are touched so everytime I move they scream and so do I.

Now I have to keep the drain in for 10 or more weeks. So they have to give me good meds so that I can handle the pain. So this is where I am now.......

One cool thing though is that he said that when he did the scope my sleeve was in great shape. It had not stretched or moved or has been damaged in any way...Yes me!!!!!! 19 months out and doing great in the sleeve department as far as it changing over time.

Now I have an ulcer that is on my sleeve. A tiny one and it is open and so what I eat or drinks leaves it and goes out of the ulcer and goes into the abscess. Then from there it goes in the drain. They havegiven me powerful antibiotics for this and soon great pain pills...

Here is to hoping I go home soon..And contrinue my life...

Thank you all for the well wishes

Reading your post RJ made me really hurt for you. This is awful to read, and honestly you must be terrified at times. You are always so upbeat, it is hard to imagine..... I am praying for you to heal. We can be a group of prayer warriors as well as we can be a support team for weight loss. God Bless and heal you. Linda
