Year Two ~ Health, Diet & Exercise

February 2014 ~ Marks Two Years Post Nissen Fundoplication 

Let me start off by saying..I should have stayed on smaller portions!!


Personally, I have gained back all the weight that I lost over the past two years. Pretty much like at year one eat and drink what I want..I added soda back into my diet (not recommended - the bloat is not worth it) Went back to work and that was the only thing to drink one day, didn't feel like water I was feeling sluggish and needed caffeine. So soda it was Cherry Coke wish that I had never taken that sip. After adding soda the weight increased and increased, back to my original weight. It wouldn't have been so bad but over the years I had not been putting pressure on my wrap and I was healing fine. Which leads me to my dilation. With the weight gain (almost 35 lbs) and my poor eating habits..I went in for my yearly check up and EGD. My EGD showed that my wrap was intact but to relieve the pressure my GI did a dilation - lower esophageal dilation (LED). This helped in the moment but I worried about the long term effects it could have on my wrap. Never have been one of those people who worry about the integrity of my wrap, having faith that my surgeon knew what he was doing and that he gave my wrap the best chance of surviving. What I've come to realize is that I need to take care of myself in order for my wrap to have the best chance of staying intact. 


Notes: No heartburn, No reflux and Gas Bloat still an issue. 

Diet: Normal, Eating regular meals

Exercise: Normal could/should do more (fractured my patella so this has been a bit of a setback) 

All in All I am so happy to have had this procedure and look forward to my continued health.

  2. My life is beautiful thanks to you, Mein Helfer. Lord Jesus in my life as a candle light in the darkness. You showed me the meaning of faith with your words. I know that even when I cried all day thinking about how to recover, you were not sleeping, you were dear to me. I contacted the herbal center Dr Itua, who lived in West Africa. A friend of mine here in Hamburg is also from Africa. She told me about African herbs but I was nervous. I am very afraid when it comes to Africa because I heard many terrible things about them because of my Christianity. god for direction, take a bold step and get in touch with him in the email and then move to WhatsApp, he asked me if I can come for treatment or I want a delivery, I told him I wanted to know him I buy ticket in 2 ways to Africa To meet Dr. Itua, I went there and I was speechless from the people I saw there. Patent, sick people. Itua is a god sent to the world, I told my pastor about what I am doing, Pastor Bill Scheer. We have a real battle beautifully with Spirit and Flesh. Adoration that same night. He prayed for me and asked me to lead. I spent 2 weeks and 2 days in Africa at Dr Itua Herbal Home. After the treatment, he asked me to meet his nurse for the HIV test when I did it. It was negative, I asked my friend to take me to another nearby hospital when I arrived, it was negative. I was overwhite with the result, but happy inside of me. We went with Dr. Itua, I thank him but I explain that I do not have enough to show him my appreciation, that he understands my situation, but I promise that he will testify about his good work. Thank God for my dear friend, Emma, I know I could be reading this now, I want to thank you. And many thanks to Dr. Itua Herbal Center. He gave me his calendar that I put on my wall in my house.
