Update On Me
Apr 27, 2011
I have not been here in a minute due to medical issues I have been having.I was hospitalized repeatedly since December 2010 not WLS related
12/10 - I was in the hospital for two weeks due to Malnutrition I stopped eating out of fear of gaining back my weight. I ended up with two feeding tubes in my nose (at seperate times) and they kept falling out so they gave me a dual picc line and I was fed on TPN at home for two months.
2/2011 - I was in the hospital for two weeks because I had severe anemia (hemoglobin was 5) and I passed out and it turned out that I had a staph infection from the dual picc line and was septic.
3/2011 - I was in the hospital for two weeks because I had Pneumonia and stap/bacterial infection was still present from Feb. I now have Endocarditis of the tricuspid valve because of it.
Those that may remember I had a revision 10-09-09 by Dr. David Provost.
I was revised from proximal to distal and had a gastro gastric fistula repaired.
I almost died three times Dec, Feb, and March.
I am so glad to be alive.
I am fine now, but still am fighting this eating disorder that I have.
I am really terrified of getting big again.
I am now 5'6 158 and would like to lose another 20 lbs.
I am getting counseling for my eating disorder so I am taking care of myself in that aspect.
I just wanted to come on here and see how you all were and to update you on me.
I hope you all are doing well.
Have an absolutely fabulous Thursday.
