Hi, Noreen.
I just wanted to say that I'm sorry for whatever you're going through, and
I hope things settle down for you, so you can enjoy the journey more.
Blessings,

Sorry about all your complications. I too have had several problems after
surgery and they continue to exhist. It is very frustrating but I can tell
you to please hang in there. It will get better and remember that you have
lost weight. Go with the foods you can eat now and build up on those.
Forget about trying new ones until your body is feeling stronger. While
meat is importan for protien, there are other sources and if you can get
your protien from somewhere else do so. You will be happier and your body
will get stronger so you will heal easier and maybe the complications will
lessen. Mine have greatly improved. Not perfect yet but getting there. I
pray that you feel better very soon and the weight will just fall right
off.

Sorry for your complications. My RNY surgeon spoke at one of my support
groups the other night. Your blog speaks of hospitalization from
dehydration. My surgeon said the PRIMARY reason for being re-admitted to
the hospital after surgery is dehydration. People have to get used to
drinking more fluids, primarily water. My surgeon plainly stated that if
your urine continually has significant color to it, it means that you are
not drinking enough fluids. If your urine is clear most of the time, that
indicates your fluid intake is good. Temporary colored urine is common soon
after taking vitamins, but should be almost clear the rest of the day. My
wife had a RNY revision from a 1980 gastric bypass in 1980. She was re
admitted twice in the first month to the hospital. The first time was based
on dehydration. DAVE

Hi Noreen,
I can so relate to you. I have too many as well. I try not to complain
too much because this was an elective procedure that I made the decision to
have, but I sure wish I could just get past all of the problems. I know
there is bound to be a point where it gets better, when? Good luck to you
and I hope things get better for you.
