Craziness....

Things have been pretty crazy lately. I have been taking my Mom and Dad to their doctors appointments because neither one of them like to drive. haha I have also been battling blood pressure problems (that I never had before surgery) and not being able to keep anything down. On Wednesday of last week I called my surgeons office and told them that I felt really jittery and that I ate one bite of fish and it came back up!! I am so tired of this. She told me to go check my blood pressure and then let her know what it was. Well it was 175/102, so she told me to call my PCP. Called him, he told me to come to his office right away and they gave me a pill that would make my blood pressure come down really fast. I have to go back to him in a month to have it rechecked because he gave me some meds to take until then. So then I called the surgeon's office back again and asked what I needed to do about the throwing up and she told me to go back to liquids a couple of days. On Friday I called back and asked her what to do next and she told me that I could try foods again and if I still had a problem this weekend to call her on Monday and she would get Dr. Avara to look at me....I may have a stricture. Last night I ate the insides of a taco or at least a 1/4 of it. Meat, cheese, sour cream....it was awesome. LOL

Hopefully my pouch was just inflamed from the throwing up and it won't happen anymore!! :0) Well later!!!

*One more thing!! I am almost down to below 300!! I am so excited!! hehe*
