Sleeved in Feb 2014! (ER Visit last night)



Recommended Posts

Hey guys! Question?

I had the sleeve done back in February 2014 with complications (leak, sepsis and hospitalised for 10 days.) ever since when I have bowl movements it’s mainly diarrhoea but not every time, I’ve always felt weak, sleepy and no energy just thought i was lazy lol. I eat healthy, exercise and I work 40+ hours for an EP. I ended up going to the ER last night due to chest pains and PVC’s they did some blood work and tests which came back saying I have Iron deficiency anemia, dyspnea and hypokalemia. Has anyone here had this happen?

I am currently at 175lbs and holding steady! Started at 260.

but super happy size wise!

branlee90 I don't think I've heard of a sleeve patient having Vitamin deficiencies, but then again, that persistent diarrhea is more than likely the cause of that. Hope everything gets sorted out!
