Blood Sugar and Gastric Bypass

Wednesday, August 12th, 2009

I’m going to say something about me right off the bat, “I was healthier when I was overweight” feel so much better now…LOL…

I was going to have a CT scan done today because I had a mild seizure last week…But unfortunately my veins(small veins) are not cooperating with anyone…So they are hoping to get me in on Friday….

When I went in to see the doctor I had my blood pressure taken, Intern couldn’t find it, then the guy tried to take my blood from a finger to see how my sugar was, NO couldn’t get it either…He looked at me and asked if I was alive…Poor guy tried 2 times, it’s like really…I told you I don’t have any blood to give…I know he is going to go back to school and talk about this one…

So tomorrow I come in for another round of tests so they can get a reading on my glucose levels…I have to be there by 7 A.M. and it takes 3 hours to do…The nurses have to give me this sugary drink and I know I’m going to have some major dumping going on…

My doctor is pretty sure it’s my sugar levels cause when they finally did get a reading on my sugar today it was low…

I guess this is the price I have to pay for mutilating my body just to lose weight…LMAO…

Eating and Tingling sensation

Monday, August 10th, 2009

Since my last post, my body still hasn’t changed much…But the good news is I haven’t had another seizure…

My arms and feet still like to go numb after I eat, which is wild since this all started since I had my b-12 shot…Sometimes my face and eyes like to go numb or eyes going blurry but want can I do and who can I complain to…I did this myself, I wanted that instant gratification and I guess I got more then what I asked for…LOL…

I did call my doctor and left a message so we will see what he has to say…

I hope everyone out there is doing well and having a great day…

Rny and Stomach Pouch

Friday, August 7th, 2009

Well I found out something that I don’t what to think about…

When I went to have my Upper EDG(scope they put down your throat) they noticed that I didn’t have a normal pouch like we are suppose to…You know it suppose to look like a little egg pouch, well my is just like a tube…It is just narrow like a long tube would look like, I don’t have that egg pouch…I guess this makes sense since I don’t have a problem with bread and can count on my hand how many times something has gotten stuck…This is just wild and I wonder how many people have this as well…I mean how will we actually know unless we have an ex-ray or something…But this makes sense now since this one Doctor ask me where my stomach was…Now I know…

Seizure and Gastric Bypass

Friday, August 7th, 2009

Well yesterday was an eventful day…

I wrote yesterday on the blog how I was trembling and thought maybe it was related to my b-12 shot I got the other day…But i’m not so sure now what happened or is going on with me…

During the mid afternoon after I wrote that I kept getting worse and trembling really hard, so I thought I would lay down and try to rest it off…Well what I remember next will haunt me forever…I woke up shaking so hard I had spit coming out of my mouth and couldn’t stop…Sometimes I didn’t even know what was happening was real…But finally it stopped and my limbs and back was so tight that when I tried to walk I could barely move and I kept swaying back and forth…I called a nurse I know and she said it sounds like I had a mild one…And I need to keep an eye on it…

I’m trying to put this out of mind cause I don’t want to think that this could be another problem added on to so much more…Especially since I don’t have a history of this…I feel like I’m a burden half the time to my friends and family and feel I’m going to go out of my mind if I have to deal with one more thing…My husband wants me to go see a Neurologist…We will see…

Trembling

Thursday, August 6th, 2009

Yesterday I went to have a b-12 shot from my family doctor like I do every month…

But this morning I woke up and I can’t stop trembling…It feels like my nervous systems are going in overload and I don’t know how to make it stop…Am I having some adverse reaction to my shot, I don’t know…It becomes scary when your body does things you have no clue what is going on with it…

I mean yesterday they couldn’t get my blood pressure at all…And they were like we know your alive cause your talking to us…Maybe I shouldn’t be scared and just suck it up and try to relax…
