Chat Room



Recommended Posts

Does anyone use the chat room? I see it yet when I go in I am the only one there. Is it only available during certain hours? I didn't see it last night.

There's a chat room? Maybe it's because nobody knows about it or how to access it. How do you access it anyway?

If you click on Patients and in the drop down you will see chat.

We had a chat room then it was removed and and about a month ago it was announced as back. At the time you bad to get there via the link(no button) so most people don't know how to access it. I will look around for the button as I know there are people who want to use it.

Yeah there is nobody in there. I keep going in at different times but I don't think anyone knows about it or they don't like to chat.

@@Alex Brecher people still can't find the button for chat! I know that people want to use it, but we need easier access.

I am not much into chatting but I know that people used to announce a time and people did use the chat function previously.

The link to the chat room can be found in the top site navigation bar under PATIENTS:

As well as in the footer of our site:

I didn't know that the chat room was an option again.

I'm on vacation but when I get home, I'll make it a point to put up posts in the evenings when people like to chat. You'll have to take the time zone factor into consideration.

If anyone wants to use it, put up a post that says you would like to chat so it shows up in new posts, Then open another window and do what you want to do. You'll have to see if anyone comes in . the old chat room had a door bell that let you know someone saw your post, and came in to chat.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
