9 YEARS LATTER HOW ARE YOU DOING,WONDERING IF I SHOULD HAVE IT REMOVED

I just came across your videos which gave me hope. My 2 and a half year old daughter is having surgery right now due to her having Sickle Cells disease and found out that she has an enlarged spleen. I am so scared what is coming and to be honest I am not ready for that. Thanks a lot for your videos, they are helping me not to cry and worry while waiting for her to come out of surgery.

Hi! How are you feeling now?

Please make another recent video😮

What vaccine did you take before your splenectomy

How are you doing today? ❤

Hello, Dear. Great video. I request you to please reply to my query. I just had my splenectomy done last week. I just want to know if you got pregnant after your surgery. If yes, was it a normal delivery? Please reply

Now how r you

What type of doctor did the spleen surgery??

I can’t find anything and I’m having mine tomorrow 😢

The pain in your shoulder is referred pain. It’s normal.

I go in for my splenectomy April 10 I’m so tired of this pain . I’ve always wanted to from someone who’s been through this .

yes i remember that hi , sam is right

How are you doing now ?

Hi, i am dhiraj. I just had laparoscopic splenectomy 7 days back. Currently i am suffering from stomach pain after eating small amount of food. Is this common?

I don't understand why she has 2 thumbs down. What morons did that. What is there to disagree with about this woman's experience she sharing...🤔

You should be careful now because corona is so dangerous for people without spleen

Thanks, it helped aa lot... My spleen will be removed the next month due to chronic ITP(immuno thrombocytopenia purpura) my platelet count has been low since 3 years, so the doctors suggested to go for splenectomy... I’m just getting really scared now... can u or anyone say how the health differs from before and after the splenectomy

I have major shoulder pain and I haven't had my surgery yet it feels like it deep in the bone very painful

How are you doing today? I have a possibly enlarged spleen and I'm so afraid

I do have questions.... :( ! What did your spleen symtpoms first feel like ??

Hey I’m so worried! I think my spleen is enlarged or something I feel something around my abdomen . I also get bad cramps if I twist .

I know it’s been so many years ago and I don’t know if you will get this but there aren’t many helpful videos like this. I just recently had a splenectomy and am wondering if you remember if you platelets became too high after? If so what did they do and did they come back down on their own??! Thank you so much

Thanks for your video... I had an open Splenectomy due to a severely enlarged spleen. I'm currently waiting for the pathology report to see if it is some type of lymphoma that was causing that inflammation. I completely understand about the feeling you have of your organs moving around. my spleen was literally the size of a football when it's only supposed to be the size of your fist so I have a lot of extra room in my abdominal cavity and every time I try to lay down and roll over to either side I literally can feel everything adjusting... All kinds of sounds and feelings that are quite freaky. I can't wait until I'm a few more weeks into the recovery because this is much worse than I thought I would be.

Just got surgery

My spleen is remove Please help me

Nice to see your video.. my mother s 58 and Dr suggested to under go this removal of spleen. So I m worried but after watching your video I m feeling little better.. but how do you keep your self away from infections.. plz give us some tips

Hello!! I wish I had seen your videos when you put them out. I could have given you tons of information. I'm not sure if they told you or if you did it, but once your spleen is removed your immune system is compromised, so you need to get the pneumonia shot. I believe it is every 4 or 5 years. My spleen was removed due to spherocytosis. That is where your red blood cells are round instead of oval and they get destroyed trying to go into the spleen. I was lucky that I had my tonsils out when I was a child but I always got colds, fevers, sore throat, etc. Once my spleen was removed and I got the shot, I didn't get even a cold for the first 4 years. It happens every time I get the shot. As far as eating foods, you can eat whatever you want, as long as your blood work is fine. If anything eating certain things which help in gaining red blood cells may be important. I also have a pacemaker that runs my stomach and I also had my gallbladder removed. Both were done open procedure. There really isn't much to it once the spleen is removed. Just eat good. I would get the tonsils removed. You will be happier in the long run. If you are still experiencing other issues, it probably doesn't have to do with the removal of the spleen. DO NOT GET A FLU SHOT. All you need is the pneumonia shot, very important to have when the spleen is removed. No other vaccines are needed. If you keep keeping sick, you may have other issues. I had stomach issues for 5 years and went through 9 doctors before they figured out there was something wrong. So, if you feel a certain way that isn't normal, go see a doctor. If you don't like or believe their answer, go to someone else. Doctors, I found out only know certain things when it comes down to it. Unless they are a specialist. Trust yourself before trusting a doctor with a diagnosis. Always get as many opinions as you need, to make sure you get the right answer. It's not easy, but it's worth it in the end. The funny thing is, I tarted going to doctors with a stomach issue and ended up having gallbladder removal, spleen removal, brain surgery, which was all found when looking my a stomach problem. After 9 gastro doctors and 5 years, they determined my stomach wasn't working. Good luck with your health and I hope everything goes well for you. Most of those shots aren't good for you, especially now since you have a low immune system without a spleen.

It has been one and half months, iam living with out Spleen in emergency cases they removed. Now how could be my life and what problems i need to face mam and my age was just 20(male)

Hey , I had my spleen remove 4 years ago and my health has change some much for the worse . I have had strep throat 5 times and suffer from yeast . It’s always like a wining battle with my heath . When it’s not one thing it’s an other . I would love to know how are you now ? I been looking for someone without a spleen . Would love to hear from you

Doctors must love you ,the avrage american who keep them in bussiness,wonder if you even thought of eltarnative option or you just complitly trusted your drug seller i mean your doctor ?

Thank you for posting your experience with your splenectomy. I just had mine a week ago. Unfortunately mine was so big it was not laparoscopic. How long did you feel distended after surgery?

Do you get sick often?

I hear your shoulder does stay sore for a little bit

I just had mine out. I feel you. I'll have one narly scar to show. It is rough

Mam you have any complication after laparoscopy???

My husband underwent an open splenectomy ten years ago. The surgery went well. After four days post the surgery, he had complications and was put on life support for 12 days. On the same wound, he was opened 3 times. For 12 days, he could not speak and was drugged. Later, I was told that nothing more could be done and I watched my husband die. I still need answers

I’d love to see an update after your 2014’s splenectomy. Best wishes.

Thank you for the video, my wife ruptured hers due to fainting/fall, she was bleeding internal and it was removed, she has a large scar, a small hole in her neck from the blood transfusion, your video has calmed us both. Thank you. 🙏

How are you these days? Are things going well for you?

I have don’t have a spleen and I don’t have any tonsils

Hi mam ...u lost weight after laparoscopy?

HI there! Great video! Now that 4 years have past since you posted this video how have you been health wise post splenectomy? I'm having my spleen removed in a few days and was a little worried.

Good video. I was actually researching "dog spleen removal" because I'm anticipating one in my job as a vet. Nevertheless I can add something to this: REDUCE STRESS. Looking for the answer to your immune system problems can easily take over your life. Remember to breathe, smell the flowers, meditate, get colour in the dead of winter (if you live in a cold climate), pamper yourself with things that you love etc etc. That's all. Thanks for the vid.

Wow, i had an emergency splenectomy about a year ago. I have a 10-12 inch scar down my abdomen.

Not excited for my splenectomy next month *yeet*

Yo whays Poppin. My name is Jackson, I'm 16, I get my spleen out in a month. I have hereditary spherocytosis and am anemic so they wanna chop out my spleen. And your videos helped a lot. Thanks.

What was the cause of your bp rising?

Thank you for the video. I just had my spleen and part of my pancreas removed on Sept. 28th. I'm still in hospital now as I type this message scheduled to be released Oct. 4th.
