If your in real pain then you do need to go in to A&E I work for Yorkshire ambulance and I assure you they won't mind at all Go through 111 it's for none emergency and I work on that side

I've tried going through 111 twice, they just told me to call my gp or out of hours gp :/

Bless you hunny.

Please go to the hospital next time.

If it has progressed. It could be pancreatitis like I had and they have to blood test for it mid attack.

I was vomiting I was in so much pain on my last attack and that is when I was diagnosed with pancreatitis. (They had no idea it was gall stone induced until much later)

I luckily only had 3/4 attacks before it was confirmed. Although a lengthy 4/6months in hospital to find the mini stones was draining

Call an ambulance next time. They won't mind. They see all sorts. Xx

I will do, just hate going there alone. I was told the pain could also be my liver, with having fibrosis but never realise that, just initially assume its gallstones. Will deffo go to a&e next time as it needs sorting. Will call my team in the morning too, try a push about my appointment xx

Haven't been sick yet, thankfully but have started feeling sick.. The last time I was sick was 2012 and that was down to drinking almost a litre of vodka on an empty stomach.. Before that it was when I was about 12 years old.. Worse feeling sick though.. If sticking my fingers down my throat would have helped us have done it but it never works! Xx

Thank you. I greatly understand my surgeon will be busy with all the wls he does but a 15/20 min appointment shouldn't take this long to make xx

Finally! Rang hospital again to chase up my appointment with my surgeon about my gallstones... Still no appointment made since I first called and told them I had gallstones on the 8th of October!! So spoke to Liz and she couldn't understand why I'd not received one yet.. So she rang the out patients department for me to find out what's happening... She just called me back and I have an appointment with Mr Ackroyd next Wednesday at 1:50!! Thank the Lord! Hopefully he'll say he will remove the gallbladder and I won't have to wait too long!! Keep your fingers crossed guys! Xx

Much better news hun

 

[WeightlossDreamer]

Thank god for that! What a nightmare for u hun x x

 

[xkirsty88]

Thanks ladies! I told Liz (sheffield wls teams nurse) about Saturday/yesterday's episode.. I didn't feel fully better till about 10pm so was almost 24 hours with this one!! All I managed yesterday was 1 and a half cups of decaf tea with milk and sweeteners, about 400ml.. 5 rich tea biscuits, an apple, and about 2 3rds of a bisto cottage pie then before bed I forced about 500ml of nas juice down over about 40 mins.. Didn't stop feeling sick till about 6 pm.. Left it half hour and decided on having tea.. So glad it's soon the appointment, instead of waiting more months just to see ackroyd then waiting for surgery.. Xx

 

[xkirsty88]

FINALLY lost some weight!!! It is only 0.5lb but it's still a loss since September 30th! And that's not including the 3-5 lb I had put on.. Xx

I just want to add onto my comment about weight loss earlier - I haven't been changing my weight on my 'my weight' app when I have put on, not lost etc as just been focusing on trying to maintain but one or 2 weeks since sept I had put on upto 5lb then they disappear the next week.. I have been keeping check though. But I think baring in mind I haven't exercised properly in over a month due to being exhausted and run down with pain etc I haven't done to bad.. Going to start back into protein shakes next week too, and boost the protein to see if that will help.
Also currently struggling with food, finding things I cook so un-appetising so not enjoying good unless it's cheese or rich tea biscuits... Xx

 

[robina]

Just dont put the cheese on the biscuits

I put laughing cow on jacobs digestives earlier, only thing i thought i could stomach ....... it was the worst thing ive tasted since surgery
