I’m in the ER



Recommended Posts

So first day back to work after 6 weeks off from the sleeve surgery and maybe 1/2 way through my tour I had to drive myself to the ER. Had excruciating pain on left side of my lower back to me lower stomach. I haven’t had 1 issue in last 6 weeks and I have been working out and walking 6 days a week. I even told the Surgeon on Thursday that I felt 2 more weeks would have better for me to return to work since I just started eating real solids. Anyway waiting on a few tests but everyone thinks it could be a kidney stone. So I have that going for me!!!! I’ll keep you posted!!!

Yeah it sounds like it could be a kidney stone. Been there, done that. As bad as kidney stones are, I guess it's a good thing it's not a complication with your sleeve. I hope you feel better soon!

Well the timing sure sucks but if it is kidney stones at least that is something fairly easy to treat and it’s not something that will require another surgery. Hang in there.

      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.
