Ah, I see. So your blood vessels are not getting innervation or not responding to signals. So, besides the pooling, I imagine you get very woozy and feel like passing out.
Now I understand why you are stuck in bed. Did this happen AFTER your gastric bypass?

Yes.. I had the surgery on August 13th (2009) and the neuropathy pain started in December.

Oh SarahMae, how frustrating, to have had this surgery to try to get better and end up with this!
 I would love to make this better for you in real life, but I can't....so, how about you join me on my bicycle for 10, and you don't need to pedal..... I am sure somehow, some one will figure this out....in the meantime, I am sure your blogging about things will help a lot of people gain perspective about their own lives.

 I'd love it if you (or me or anyone!) could make this better too... but for now I guess I will just have to be patient and wait... and hope that someday, someone out there can figure it out.  Until then, I'd LOVE to ride on your bicycle... and that's great about the pedaling, because the front half of my feet are so sore and numb that I wouldn't be much help anyway! haha Gotta learn to laugh or this would all be so incredibly depressing.
