Guest guest Posted August 3, 2004 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 I am 11 wks out and almost 3 yrs out of my RNY. I have been weak, fatigued, TIRED (of course,) dizzy, lightheaded (**i posted my symptoms earlier,) if its bad my chest feels like a elephant on it, and really bad my tounge starts to get numb like i was at the dentist, i get sweaty, and if its REALLY BAD my lips get numb too. My ob (who was my ob for my 1st daughter who will be 7 in sept and i will be 35 in sept) sent me to ER. Er did a whole bunch of tests, the only thing high (or neg) was eosophils. I called doc next day he said well i guess that is good everything ok and i guess this pregnancy you will just be tired. THAT IS NOT MY ONLY *ITCH! He had said i am low in b12 he said to come in (on nxt reg appt) for a shot--i go pick up the b12 stuff at walgreens. anyway, i am very forgetful as it is so i forgot where do i go w/this post... arrr. also, i work for the local ph company and i am OUT of FMLA, and cannot miss work until my absences drop off in march of 05.

OR... if you get fired.. you would qualify for Unemployment... and then state Maternal/fetal care... ??? I couldn't even fathom working a full time job right now.... (although being pg and having a 21 month old I think qualifies ). There are days I don't shower and dress until noon....

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2004 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 If you are not happy with him I would considering changing docs. I hope you feel better soon. Pregnancy is very tiring for sure and I only felt good about 3 months of the whole thing, I was very tired and i slept like crap. My little man is awesome though and was so worth it all.
