One Month Post Op
It's been one month since surgery. Went to the surgeon today for follow up. Since surgery I'm down 27lbs. Since I've been so sick and was in the hospital for 2 weeks, the Dr. Says I'm still retaining a lot of fluid. Today has been the first day I can really see the change.
Frozen Protein Pops
A friend gave me a simple way to get your protein in. Make a protein shake and freeze them in Popsicle molds. I got a cheap mold at walley world for $2.

Hospital Stay
Sorry I haven't post in a few weeks. Spent a week and a half in the hospital. Surgeon thought it might be a stricture at first. Endoscopy ruled that out. I was very dehydrated and malnourished. Ended up having to get a picc line for nutrition and fluids. We finally decided to stop the protein shakes and try soft foods. That did the trick. Been home 2 days and only threw up once. This compared to keeping nothing down for 2 weeks is a huge improvement. Hoping the worst is behind me.
This is me Rollin through the halls causing trouble. Lol.
I'm glad to be home. Still very weak and having a major CMT flair up. But it's gonna get better.
