Feeling So Low

Posted , 3 users are following.

I  had my gallbladder  operation  just  over 2 weeks ago,2 days

Later I  had an infection in my bellybutton  incision  so put on antibiotics.   4 days  later  I  ended up in A&E  because  the  antibiotics 

had set my diverticulitis  off.  Put on different  antibiotics  but they

made sick so antibiotics  changed  and  I  was sent home  after  3 days.

After being home for  3  days I  had  terrible diarrhoea  with  lots of yellow bile.   I'm  feeling  completely  exhausted,  haven't  any energy, 

can't  eat  much at all with the bloating  . Just   want  to  cry as it feels  like  I'm  never  going  to  get  better. . Anyone else feel  so tired and  low  ?     it's  worrying  me that  I   can't  find  foods  to  eat.

    It's still early days from your gallbladder surgery and i'm sure it's going to be fine. Sounds like you need a good support network around you at the mo and i hope have one.

    I read your thread yesterday about your GP appt and to be honest i've come to the conclusion that most british GP's are a total waste of space and you would be better off asking the cat!
