9 months post op

Jul 13, 2012

 Not sure how I'm feeling about my 9 month checkup -- weight wise I was fine (still 205) BUT my labs are and have been a total unexplainable mess!!!  So I clearly get enough protein but the prealbumin is still low @ 11 (up from 8).  Vitamin A is now low (will take vitamins for 1 month), liver enzymes are still out of whack, and iron is not the best (switching infusions to every 2 weeks).  Colleen & Dr. Steele are worried that I may have an unrelated auto-immune issue and the low blood sugar issues and a high A1C just don't fit.  Still seeing oncologist, gastroenterologist, AND endocrinologist.  I am soooo tired of going to the damn doctors and the lab but I am worried that something is wrong even though I feel wonderful.  Anyway....staying with my current diet but trying to eat every 1 or 2 hours (and how I am suppose to get in the fluids is beyond me).  Ready to start week 4 of couch to 5K, talking to a new friend from NC (no expectations -- just fun), and the new job starts Monday!!!!

Loving life although a little frustrated
