Xiao, a 34-year-old man 174, weighs 168kg and has a body mass index of 55.4. He went to Dalin Tzu Chi Hospital for weight loss treatment because of high blood pressure and diabetes, and he was panting when walking or sitting. Unexpectedly, he found that his heart function was less than half that of normal people, and his organ function declined like a man in his seventies, which was life-threatening. After successfully undergoing stomach reduction surgery, he was very grateful to the medical team.
The weight of high school has broken 100%, and the diet is still unrestrained.
Mr. Xiao, who lives in Tainan City, said that he began to gain weight in the third grade of primary school. Because I like to eat nutritious lunch at school on weekdays, I ate a lot of meals until my weight broke through 100. During that time, he often ate two bowls of meat dry rice for dinner and bought fried chicken as a snack in the middle of the night, like instant noodles he often ate. He will continue to eat the remaining soup with rice, almost never drink boiled water on weekdays, and drink drinks as water.
Chronic diseases come and go, and health goes from bad to worse.
Mr. Xiao has suffered from hypertension, diabetes and heart disease since he was in his twenties. He usually breathes while working, walking and talking. His right ankle was injured by playing ball games, and sometimes it hurts to step on the ground. Whenever the climate gets cold, he can only take anti-inflammatory painkillers. His family is getting more and more worried about his health and wants him to go to the hospital to lose weight.
Accompanied by his uncle, Yin, director of the Center for Weight Loss and Metabolic Surgery, made a preoperative assessment, including weight, blood pressure, blood sugar and blood lipid. , and performed a cardiac ultrasound examination. I didn't expect him to be so young and his heart function is only 23 (normal 70-80). He may even face a heart transplant if he doesn't actively do treatment.
Weight loss treatment first, then stomach reduction surgery.
Dr. Yin said that in Mr. Xiao's condition, it is impossible to perform gastric reduction surgery immediately, including gastroscopy, esophagus, magnetic resonance imaging and other preoperative examinations, because of poor cardiac function, and even because of poor cardiac function, the risk of anesthesia is increased. So consult a metabolist and nutritionist to help him have the confidence to actively control his diet and cooperate with exercise.
Four months later, Mr. Xiao's weight has been successfully reduced to 146 kg, and his heart function has recovered to 60. Finally, he successfully underwent gastric reduction surgery in July. During the operation, he performed a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, and about two-thirds of the stomach was removed. At first, it was reduced to only 30 to 40°c, and then it could be gradually increased.
It is important to keep exercising after operation.
After five months of stomach reduction surgery, Mr. Xiao cooperated with "aerobic exercise" and "diet control", and now his weight has dropped to 1 14 kg. Dr. Yin encouraged all transplant patients and weight-loss patients to face their health problems bravely as a team, keep exercising, be patient, keep relaxing and move on after rest. The most important thing is personal perseverance.
