Getting mine in a couple of weeks...
My gj tube placement was also extremely painful!
I’m going in for my second one!! My Dr took the first one out too soon and i dropped an extreme amount of weight. I’m really frustrated with medical professionals saying procedures are painless when they AREN’T 😢
Hi Hayley! My name is Chloe and I wanted to thank you for creating this video. I have multiple chronic illnesses and I am getting my GJ tube in a few weeks. I would love to hear more about your experience and if you have any other tips for pre and post op! Thanks!
How did the surgery go? I’m unfortunately heading down that path. The doctors are pushing for a GJ tube. Hope you’re well! 💖
@@randomthatsme1 I’m so sorry to hear that you need a GJ tube. I know the thought of it is really overwhelming, but I want you to know that it has changed my life for the better and it has helped me manage my illnesses and symptoms better. It has saved me countless times from needing to go to the hospital. Overall the surgery went well. It took me about 10 days before I turned a corner, and by the second week I was feeling almost back to myself. Please let me know if you need anything or if you have any questions!
This Tuesday
how is life with a tube? gain weight back ? feel energy and can hydrate?
im just curious have you been checked for EDS? I have all the same comorbid disorders as you and they are all highly associated with EDS!
I actually do have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome! Right now I am diagnosed with Hypermobile type & waiting to be seen by a geneticist to rule out the other types of EDS 💕
