crissy79 16 Posted December 18, 2016 I haven't written for a few .on the due to some issues. I almost died passed on 2 weeks ago due to intestines and absorption issues. I guess when we get gassy we have to be very careful because our intestines can rupture. I thought looking 6-7 pregnant sometimes was normal, just had to pass it. Lol. They are trying to give me banana bags monthly, also an IV cocktail. To help, the first banana bag was ok but I was in so much pain and out I couldn't tell, the second one I wanted to get up and wonder around but since my body was healing I had to sit often. I stayed home for, 4 days trying to care for myself. Then I was admitted for 2.5 days and close to death. So now ER ASAP with pouch and intestines. I was 258, now between 132 -136.

crissy79 16 Posted December 18, 2016 I was told by my doctor my body is rejecting the surgery that is why I am still having complications. I guess it can happen, didn't know that. Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

biggestloser85 1 Posted February 12, 2017 Where did you have your surgery done? I did not know your body could reject the bypass. I'm having my surgery on 3/16/17 and now it's making me nervous. Did you follow the guidelines? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blondie66 271 Posted February 28, 2017 It is scary and sad to hear the struggles that some people go through from surgery. I have to be careful with Protein it can make me vomit if eat too much or quickly but carbs no issues! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
