I am sitting here on a very very bleak day tapping my fingers on the computer desk wondering if I need to contact my surgeon so I thought I would blog instead lol. I don't know what has happened but yesterday I had a wing from KFC (theres my first mistake) and I was really hungry (second mistake) and I ate it too quick (bingo for a hatrick). I was driving at the time and had to bring most of it back up and even then I stayed very uncomfortable. Later that day I was at the pools with the young fella and his mate and I bought them some hot chips but I couldn't even keep one down so as I didn't want anything last night I didn't eat anything else. This morning I got up late so about 11 had a Weight Watchers cake and a small drink which I couldn't keep down and have just lost everything including fluids since. I have txt my surgeon so will wait to hear from him. I am thinking something from the chicken is stuck and I may have to had the band loosened to let whatever it is go then re tightened. Anyway I will wait and see. I start my prison officer training on Wed so blimmin hope this is sorted by then! Hope all is well with you all xx for now
PS I just got home from the hospital. We went out to dinner and after a whole evening of taking a tiny mouthful and then rushing off to try and remove it my husband took me up to the hospital I had the band done in. There was a duty GP and she arranged for me to be transferred to another public hospital to have some fluid taken out but apart from that and her very nice manner she was useless as she didn't know what to do and even said it (never mind still she smiled when she charged me $80!) lol. Just as we were leaving to go to the other hospital my surgeon rang and said he was in Sydney but to stay put as he was sending a specialist down to take some fluid out so that whatever was blocking could pass through and 30min later that's just what happened. I drank a huge glass of water after it and was sent home. Oh the relief. I will go back in a few weeks and have the fluid put back in but have to wait for the stomach to settle down due to the swelling. Ah alls well that ends well xx
