well it's been one week that I have now been out of the hospital.� WOW...it seems so long ago.� I went home and tried on clothes. I am down to the smallest clothes size that I have.� I have lost a lot of the bottom half and not much on the top.

I tired a protein bar today and got soooo sick.� it had way to many carbs in the stupid thing.� I woke up with my blood sugar low. I had to have some orange juice. then again at lunch. then it went the other way and my� blood sugar has been high ever since.

Mood is a little better. Still not normal. I went and stopped in by work today. I do miss work.� miss having a "normal" life.� Some reason my stomach is not feeling well right now.� I might have ate to much today.� I had yogurt and orange juice for breakfast. I had 4 chicken fingers and orange jucie for lunch. then I had a stupid protein bar that made me sick.�� I had some crackers and 4 chicken fingers for dinner.� I haven't thrown up or had any diarrhea today which is a shock!

I am glad that I have lost some weight...but this past month and a half has been hell.� I still have the gastroparesis and I am mad as hell that the doctor lied to me...But I guess it's something I have to get over...sooner then later.

Well, I need to take my blood sugar and get to bed....Good night!

    About Me: I am a type 1 diabetic that has gastroparesis and retina hemorrages, I went to the Cleveland Clinic In Weston, FL and saw Dr. Rosthenal. He told me that instead of getting a pacemaker in my stomach that IF I got the gastrobypass surgery (also for weight loss). That i would no longer have this gastroparesis. Well...He LIED. I had the gastro bypasss May 12, 2008. I have been out of the hospital about a total of 8 days this month. Every 2 days I am back in the hospital and since I have NO veins, they have to go to surgery to put centeral lines in my neck or groin. I have become very depressed. Everyone sugar coats the sugery. So I am here to tell anyone who wants to listen how my journey's going. So far it sucks!
