Every Rose has it’s thorn.

Ok I have been away from my favorite support source for awhile. What is that you may ask. The Bariatric TV forum of course. If you are considering Weight Loss Surgery you need to look them up http://www.bariatrictv.com/forum/index.php?www . Also look at their web site at http://bariatrictv.com/. Their weekly video podcast is great even if you are not an altered freak. Their forum is awesome. Not judgmental or mean spirited at all. Everyone there seem to actually care and they act like it too.

Ok so about my absence. I am struggling with a creepy little post op thing. I have a hernia just on the other side of the stoma from my pouch. This causes a partial blockage and it hurts. Sometimes a lot. I am such a wimp about it too. My PC Doc says Dr. Snyder could fix it in a jiff but I am afraid to even hear him out.

Ok I know but …. well there you have it. I will keep some updates here so folks can find it if they choose. Not my proudest moment I admit. I hate fear. I really hate pain. I really really hate when fear keeps me in pain. It is a work in progress, just like me.
