It's been a while. I've been having some humps to go up and over. A few. To say the least.
I want to start out by saying that I am still happy I had the surgery. No matter what the humps may be. I'm a little over three months out and I have lost 100 pounds.
On the other side, I've had some issues. I've been struggling with dehydration. In and out of the of the ER getting IV fluids to get rehydrate. Then I got really, really sick. I was dry heaving and vomiting bile for a week. No eating, barley drinking and laying in bed for a week. My mother (Thank God for her) took me to the hospital. After being checked in, hooked up to IV, pumped full of medications for nausea and stomach pains, having a endoscopy and CT, I find out that I have a Ulcer and some non urgent lesions on my liver.
A damn Ulcer made me feel like I was dying and had me in the hospital for four damn days. (A result of the surgery)
I'm now on medicine for my Ulcer and feeling much better. And in feeling better I'm seeing all the benefits of this surgery. Being down 100 pounds feels amazing. I feel better about myself. I have some energy finally. I got to ride a ride with my daughter for the first time in her 7 years of life.
If your interested in doing this surgery, I will tell you, do it. Make sure you know all the details, get fully educated. But it's worth it. It's worth having your life back. Feeling like a person who can function again. There are humps that you have to get over as with anything. But is it worth it in the long wrong. So worth it.
