Do not put off getting help



Recommended Posts

Hi GUYS,

I WANT TO SAY IM A November Sleever. All went well Nov. And Dec. Mostly. Than I started vomiting up everything I ate and drank. I kept trying nothing worked it got worse and worse. Seems I developed a huge hernia sucked up 3/4 of my stomach. I waited longer than I should have to get help. Ended up in a hospital I did not want to be in for a week tell I was transferred to my Drs. HOSPITAL. Surgery tomorrow night can't wait so tired of feeling terrible starving to death and my hair falling out due to lack of nutrition. Have had 45 lb weight loss but not in a good way. Looking forward to being back to normal. FYI I did have a faulty lap band for 8 years before sleeve surgery. Seem I am my own worst enemy. If you do not think it feels right it probably is not right. Starting over after tomorrow night.

So TRUE!! We can figure out when something isn't right. I'm sorry that you are having to do all of this. My hubby also had the Lap Band and it eroded into his Liver. It was a huge mess and he almost died, it took him 10 months to heal. He had 5 different strains of bacteria in his stomach. It was HORRIBLE!!! He was so sick he didn't even know what he was doing or saying. I am so glad all is well now. He did finally get the Sleeve in June of 2016. (he got sick in Sept of 2013) What a mess!! Good Luck and remember take care of YOU!!!

Sorry you're dealing with that. Any idea why the hernia happened? Hope that everything goes smoothly and you're feeling better.
