Hi,

This is Terri. I am the lady who had the RNY to DS conversion with Dr. Rabkin in March. It is now July and I am still on the feeding tube and have drains. We are waiting for the hole in my stomach to heal. I had a CT scan last week which looked good. Wednesday I have a stent being taking out (it was placed there six weeks ago to aid in the healing). The last time they did this I spiked a fever and was in the hospital for two days.... so I am really nervous about it but it has to be done. If the hole has closed then I can finally start or restart my recovery with a liquid then pureed diet. Then the feeding tube and drain can be taken out.

Dr. Rabkin is not the doctor who does the stents. It is a different hospital but the doctor consults with Dr. Rabkin.

Just asking for good thoughts. Thanks everyone. Terri

Lots of good thoughts headed your way (I love your town!). I hope you will finally be healed and able to gain the benefits of your revision to DS.

Hi,

Thanks for everyone's kind words and thoughts. The procedure went well. I got to come home. Dr. Rabkin started me me on 30cc of clear liquid per-hour so it is a start.

Thanks again and will keep you posted. Thanks, Terri
