10yearstolate 0 Posted December 11, 2016 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.

Jazzzyjay 222 Posted December 11, 2016 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. Sent from my Y538 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jess9395 5,449 Posted December 11, 2016 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! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
10yearstolate 0 Posted December 12, 2016 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!
