    Duedenal switch - 7 years on.

    Hi I don't post very much, stated a new job and never really get time. However wanted to share a bit of what happened recently with regards to weight gain and loss 7 years on. In short I gained 1 stone over the last 18 months, I became complacent and wasn't too fussed. Was still a 17 stone...

    Has anyone died?

    I don't know if they have, however I was so unhappy and unhealthy that I was willing to take that chance by the time I had surgery. It didn't even cross my mind not to, as I knew that staying the way I was meant I was not far from something awful happening anyway. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Sad and a bit angry

    I have two girls, one just like me overweight and has been from day one, the other loves her food equally as much but is not overweight. My sister and I was just the same. When my girls where young I cooked healthily food, a favourite of theirs was Tuna and salad. We never forced them to eat...

    Having a Vit A infision today.

    I'm at the Hommerton today, my Vit A levels have dropped very low causing my night vision to fail. The team acted quickly and thankfully I can correct the deficiency with the IV I'm going to have. Has anyone else had to have this and any side affects to report?! Anna x. Sent from my iPhone...

When it kicked off, I found laying down helped till the bowel had a chance to slide back in. If at all possible...

    Hernia worry ... Advice please

    I had various repairs, I was plagued by them. At my heaviest 31 stone one was repaired but it caused many more to happen because I was too heavy. Eventually having lost 18 stone I had a tummy tuck, where the surgeon spent a lot of time cutting out affected muscles and tidying me up basically...

    Hernia worry ... Advice please

    I had a sleeve done, with an umbilical hernia. The surgery was fine, the dr was meant to fix it at the same time but I woke up with it still protruding and painful. I wasn't happy but I could see their thinking when I'd calmed down. It was better repaired when I had dropped some weight. I...
