Looking for ideas



Recommended Posts

I'm 13 weeks post op and have have about everything that could go wrong go wrong. Last dilitation on my stricture was a real good one, put me down for a week. But it is open now but still can't get fluids down enough and food has been a painful joke. In the 13 weeks since surgery I'm guessing I've had a 100 grams of Protein maybe. I've lost 115 lbs and am weak. Any professional advice like should I have a feeding tube? Or something else. Disability don't pay my bills and need to get back to work! Thanks for any input.

I'm pre op so I don't have any advice for you. But I will pray for you. That sounds like torture. I can't even imagine how weak you must feel. I definitely would get in to see my dr. Please keep us informed.

Wow I think you're way beyond the advice that can come from an internet board. I hope you have medical professionals advising you heavily. Thoughts and prayers are with you!

Well my surgeon does not seem concerned so this Tuesday I meet with an internist to start getting stuff right. Just had a doc that thought I was needing coddling all the time and was really arrogant towards it so let's hope this is it because I haven't eaten in almost two weeks and he's not concerned!

      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.
