Post Laparoscopic surgery for gallbladder and umbilical hernia

I feel so bad for you both, sablegirl and rozy288. I pray that you can get some help.
I’m 72, have had diarrhea issues for years though usually no pain. No one understands when you are having a bad day and can’t go anywhere, they think all you need to do is wear a diaper! Ha I wish.
Your experiences make me thankful for what I have, I can’t imagine having pain every day along with it. I had a bad day yesterday with gut pain, and it’s certainly debilitating.
I’m in Florida also, it’s too hot to even take a walk or use an outside pool. So lack of exercise doesn’t help.

I've got the perfect storm. Is anyone suffering multiple issues? I am going through the change so dropping estrogen is making things pretty miserable, I have a bad gallbladder so I cannot eat any fat, I have gastritis so am on a strict diet so it can heal, and my hernia tore a larger hole when it slipped up through the opening after I stupidly drank a full glass of juice and then bent over for an hour weeding the garden. I am medicine/vitamins sensitive so I have opted to take Pepcid AC for the gerd but it does cause me to have anxiety and depression. I try to sit tall and straight but do slouch a little which forces the stomach up so easily and then the reflux comes on like crazy. I can't catch a break. Anyone have any suggestions of any kind? I will listen to all of your advice as I just do not trust the doctors. ER doc refused to listen to me and gave me a ppi which caused such a severe heart pain I immediately refused to take any more.

As if the stomach issues weren't enough, now you have problems with your tooth. I don't know how you manage. I really don't. You are a bad ass Rozy. I could never make it through like you have. I am praying for you too. God help us both. PLEASE.
Congratulations on becoming a grandmother. It's really a great thing. I love my 2 grandchildren. My son Chris raised them right and I'm proud of them. They are 15 and 18 already. Young men.
Our weather is all over the map here. Hot, hot days, rainy days and then cold days. In one week.
Rozy, have you tried charcoal tabs. You need to take them apart from other meds , 1 to 2 hours apart but they are really good for absorbing crap in your body. I've started taking them after I eat and it's been keeping the heartburn away. And if you can eat sweet potatoes , they help with heart palpations. Stay tough friend. I am so praying for you. Please Lord, please, bless Rozy and give her health back to her tenfold. PLEASE.

You are so kind . Yrs I’ve tried everything they make for digestive , stomach disorders and colon disorders. I did take charcoal capsules for a while but nothing helps me .
I’m having another horrible day . The teeth throbbing , gum , into my temple two weeks .
The Motrin has to get in me every 4 hrs . Tomorrow I see specialist. I’m having anxiety so bad and my gut is exploding 💥 all day . The fatigue is killing me too .
I’m really hungry but no desire to eat ( lots of nausea earlier ). Over 800 deep wet belches since 6 am . Which is normal for years .
I barely even talked to my husband all day . He did lawn in the hot humid weather early at 9 am .
Then a few things and I’ve been in my room in bed 🛌 after shower 🚿 most of the day . I’m beside myself. I know we all have a cross to bare but sometimes you think you have had enough.
Praying 🙏 for you too . Thank you to all that replied as well .

I'm so sorry Rozy. What a terrible fix you are in. You need to take the pain killer but it messes up your tummy even more. If it's not one thing its another. I can't figure this out. I too get really anxious before going to a doctor. I think they call it white coat syndrome. There is actually a name for it. Whenever i have to leave my comfort zones I worry I will get diarhea and I have a phobia of medical things so I don't want to be picked and prodded. Menopause made everything so much worse. I am crying with you Rozy. I will hold you up in prayer and you hold me up in prayer and maybe, just maybe God will answer us.

You are a blessing xo I sent you private message too .

How did your doctors visit go? I’m hoping good. Can’t find the private message.

Oh … was so stressed. I was having heart ♥️ pvcs since 3 am .
Still am at 6:30 pm .
Took all the heart calm supplements I could today .
I took Klonipin 2 x .
It’s a long story but , and hard hard day .
Half the root canal done . Have to go back in 2.5 weeks to finish .
Had decay under crown so they took out old root canal , placed medicine in and cleaned decay , put temporary filling on the org crown ( they drilled through it .
Painful getting so many shots to numb me and after it wore off .
I’m on antibiotics now and I’m more worried about my heart ♥️ . Still on Motrin too .
Keep praying 🙏 please .
Thanks so much .
Plus my gut was a mess , I was shaking so bad for hours before I went .

So sorry Rozy. What a terrible day for you. I was thinking about you all day and wishing for the best outcome. I don’t know how people get through these tough life lessons without being traumatized. God gave you a good heart. I pray that it continues to be strong. I’m going to send a prayer for you to the wailing wall in Jerusalem. Cufi offers this service and I’ve used it before. Jerusalem is God’s special land. Maybe He will hear our prayers and bless us with a turn in good health. Huge hugs friend. I am so proud of you for even going through with it. Me, I’m such a chicken I cancel appointments because I’m a scardy cat. 🐔😿
