Argh! I know I did my research on bypass surgery, but doing research and going through it are very different things. I have not been able to eat or drink for a few days now without lots of pain and discomfort. I spoke to my Dr this morning and I am now headed back to the hospital. This time it will be outpatient though, so thankfully NO overnight stays. Apparently, my stoma (the opening from my pouch to my intestines) is scaring over and not allowing food, water or even stomach acid to go down. So, I get to go get scoped today. YAY!!! So excited for that. He did inform me that I will feel so much better by days end, so I guess I have that to look forward to. I really should not be so pessimistic, and really, I am trying REALLY hard to remain positive. I am worn out though and tired of setbacks....I just want to feel normal again and have energy and feel like myself! Anyway....I am sure I will be glad I had this surgery, but today is just one of those days I ask myself what the heck was I thinking.......I just keep remembering that there is opposition in ALL things, and that does not exclude this surgery. Anyway....I've now vented and now onto more positive thoughts! My weight loss is crazy good, down 41 pounds this morning, and THAT, I am grateful for! : )
