Doctors Appt. this week

Where should I begin…

I knew it wasn’t going to be a good day when I woke up, and really thought I should cancel my appt. maybe I should have…

It’s my time to go in and have my IV nutrients done but we are at a stand still with doing this cause well let’s just say my veins are getting smaller or basically shrinking…That is no lie either…When you look at my hands all you see is little tiny blue veins and that is it…Would I say that is from WLS, no I have always had small baby veins but it doesn’t help since I have lost the weight…In the beginning I thought it was because I’m so skinny but don’t really know for a fact…

So well now we don’t know if I can do my IV treatments any longer since my veins are so screwy and barely there…My doctor just doesn’t know what to do anymore and he is so totally against them putting a port into my chest…His words to me were quote “I would feel so guilty if I would die from getting an infection” and he is not willing to take that chance with me…And since I’m not ready to die yet that is a great plan…And since I already got an infection the last time in my arm…I was like what do we do then and they made a suggestion of possibly doing a vein transplant…Ok seriously who has this done to them…I’m not the bionic woman and don’t plan to be…I thought they were just joking at first and haha funny type thing and no so then, I think my mouth flew open but nothing came out…He is at a loss at what to do at this very moment…Something has to be done but what is the question…He told me to take as much as I can of my vitamins and he knows like I do it will only absorb alittle…We have been down this road before…

So will I get worse physically, probably…But I’m trying to keep a positive outlook and hope that someone will help fix this…

    Hey girl…oh my! Hang in there . there has to be something they can do. Have you thought about a second opinion with another Bariatric Surgeon? You may have to do this cause I know my surgeon would never allow things to get this far….i am pulling for you and if u need to talk u got my number!
