Hello everyone,
It has been a long time since I have been on due to extreme busy life as well as trying to stay healthy in it all.
I had a complete colectomy back in Feburary and it has been a life changer. I am so much happier and feel a ton better. That was until recently. I started to feel weak and seeing starry vision every once in a while. Now I am becoming nauseated and tired all the time. I used to pee(sorry so personal) all the time but now it is half of what I was. I drink 3-4 16oz bottles of water a day. If for any reason and there are days alot lately that I am not I will drink a bottle of powerade and maybe 2 bottles of water. I am extremely bloated and feel as though I am gaining excesive weight.
I know when I left the hospital they told me to make sure to eat six small meals a day or at least every 3 hrs and drink lots of water. They also told me to utilize the powerade/gatorade when feeling like my electrolytes are down. I have been feelin this way for about 2 weeks and it is starting to become difficult to function.
We just had a very close familly member pass away faster than expected from her ailment. So I have been under extreme stress and worrying that the kids and my husband is taking well to be expected.I do believe this has played a roll in all the problems. She was diagnosed with cancer the same time I was told I was going through surgery, We did our treatment times together and she was a big part of my life.
Anyway I would really like some other advise to see if I am overreacting but the weakness and the starry vision is really starting to worry me.
Thank you all for listening and for your advise.
