Guest guest Posted March 31, 2000 Report Share Posted March 31, 2000 Sorry everyone for not posting sooner but It was unavoidable. The cardiologiast changed my meds and I had a reaction to the new ones he put me on. It made me weak and dizzy and I couldn't sit up, stand up or do a blasted thing without getting physically sick to my stomach. I can be so dumb at times it took me a few days to figure it all out so now I am waiting for the stuff to leave my system, being very cautious as I am on very little meds for my heart right now, he kept me on one I have been on for a long time and took me off evertything else until this clears. then we play lets see if this med is good for you one at a time. I had to come on now to send a dear friend a link so I figured a few more minutes if sitting here wouldn't hurt, especially since is also in the room with me right now. AS soon as my head clears up and I can sit without swaying I will be back. Hoipefully Sat or Sun at the latest. Love and miss you all love, hugs and hope Angie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2003 Report Share Posted November 10, 2003 hi pam c. what did they advise you to keep your blood sugar level? did you have an endoscopy to check for a stricture? hope you feel better soon & wtg on the 40 lbs. lori h. > Hey All, > I just wanted to update you all on how I have been doing. I have had good days and bad days. I let my sugar level go down. I passed out and bruised my ribs and broke my finger and a few other bumps. I have had alot of dumping and am afraid to eat anything now. I have even had days water and chicken broth come up. I went to the doctor and they checked my blood and did x-rays and found nothing to cause this except my sugar level way to low. I have upper back pain I can't seem to get rid of. No matter how much I have went through I can still say I am down 40lbs.(never to see again) Please all you pre-ops don't let this scare you I am one of a few that this happens to. I just need to heal more. I had surgery 9/8/03 You all take care > Pam C > New Orleans > 9/8/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
