momofsara Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 I havent been to the forum in about 3 weeks because Sara has been in the hospital since March 23. She was admitted for vomiting and diarrhea which were very very bad. All this continued with the doctors throwing everything they could at her to stop it. She didnt swallow a bite of anything for 12 days. Even ice chips came back on her. Any way, long story short, they found out her gall bladder was bad and removed it yesterday. She has had such a rough go of it and is now vomiting again. I hope its only a side effect from surgery, but let me say that this has been a very trying ordeal. She has been and continues to be a very sick girl. At least one good thing has come from it, she now has a good endo. He actually researched dysautonomia to help him treat her( how bout that??) He has a partner who is very educated in the dysautonomia stuff and Sara's endo consulted with his partner for information also. I'm home now for the first time in over 2 weeks, so I'll make this short and will bring you all up to date ASAP.I must say that this time around, I've been more worried than usual because of how severe her problems were and I just didnt know how much more her body could take. She has been very down also and I'm hoping she wont stop fighting. Please keep Sara and our whole family in your prayers. I have missed you all so much and look forward to the time when I can be here more. Love to allSusan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juliegee Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Oh Susan, I'm so sorry for all Sara & you are going through. I also got VERY sick before I got my gallbladder out and (you don't want to hear this) remained very sick for about 6 months after. Like Sara, I couldn't eat anything. My whole GI tract and even my bowels stopped working. Only when I began treatment for gastroparesis/colonic inertia did things begin to turn around. I can't remember if Sara has already been DXed with gastroparesis or not. It's pretty common with autonomic issues. Sara and your whole family are in my thoughts and prayers. Mama-to-Mama, my heart breaks for you.Hugs-Julei Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
