No loss in the last couple of weeks. In fact I have gained a pound, but I’m sure that has something to do with everything that’s been going on. I’m still having some pain, but it is still quite a bit better on the ulcer medication. However, my ESG clinic is going to do an Endoscopy tomorrow morning to look for ulcers and/or any lodged stones in the bile ducts that could be causing the pain. I hope all my stitches are still in place! If there is a stone lodged somewhere, I believe they can remove it at the same time so I won’t have to go back under. My biggest hope is that the stitches are all still in tact, and there are no ulcers, and this pain is just something I have to wait out.
I have been concerned about my stitches lately due to how much I can eat without feeling anything at all. Today I ate 3.5oz of shredded chicken breast and a cup of Brussels sprouts, followed by an 8 oz protein drink just a little while later (because I was still really hungry). I am not hungry anymore, but don’t feel any fullness either. I think this is right where I should be (not hungry, and not full), but I wish it didn’t take as much food as it does to get to this point. I just have a suspicion that maybe a couple stitches have come loose or undone. At any rate, I don’t think they all have come undone because it would have taken a lot more to not feel hungry pre-procedure. I will definitely be updating with my results after the endoscopy tomorrow.
