Do you have an appalling experience of dealing with a weight-biased healthcare professional?
Puppypaws57 replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I was having terrible menstrual bleeding that wouldn't stop and I had clots. My PCP sent me to a gynecologist and the the nurse practioner said she couldn't even find my ovaries because I was too fat. Sure enough, I had to get a hysterectomy later. I feel the hysterectomy could have been prevented if I had received proper care earlier. :-( -
Gaylene - thanks! :-) I really thought therapy would do the trick. So disappointed with the surgery, lack of care (long store) and now the therapy. I feel so hopeless :-(

Thank you gowalking :-)

This is me. I can't eat healthy foods, but slider foods stay down just fine. Very irritating and people don't believe me. That is why I am gaining weight again.

Same thing for me, except for the PTSD. Hope someone call help us. In my case I can't have any other issues because of the medications I am on for bi-polar. I know some people disagree with this, but my psychiatrist says no.

serious question for fellow "veterans"
Puppypaws57 replied to CowgirlJane's topic in WLS Veteran's Forum
Your posts are definetly relevant to me. For years I have struggled with the fact that I really can't eat dense program only sliders. Naturally no one believed me and I was going through a hard time with this fact emotionally. Then, Viola!, I find that you had the same issue and getting the sleeve resolved that issue. In fact, I wanted to know more about your experience, but didn't want to bother you to death with questions. So, yes, please keep posting. Our issues are different than newbies, but they are still issues and they still matter. -
Decide not to have surgery?

Cowgirl Jane, Can you tell me how you overcame your dense Protein problem? I thought I was the only one that had something like that going on? Terry -
Decide not to have surgery?
Puppypaws57 replied to MarciaN's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
The lap band wasn't successful for me. I lost 80 lbs, but am gaining it all back. I am in therapy to find out what my issues with my weight are. I didn't think I could eat so much with the lap band. Odd, but true, I can't eat healthy foods - throw them all up. I get hungry and only the junk like ice cream go down and stay down. I think you might want to postpone the surgery. You can always get it later. -
How to forgive someone?

I'm working on it. Thanks! -
I think NULL is a fake poster. Notice his height is 3 and all his other info is 666. Didn't read the other posts, so if I missed something, I apologize.

Overactive Bladder
-
I had a bladder lift due to having an overactive bladder and it has worked wonderfully, I will admit I have a hard time mentally getting all my water in because I am afraid I will start to pee all the time again. How have you handled the water when you have had a bladder lift due to overactive bladder. Thank You!

I've gained some weight back and people are noticing. What do I say when the mention it? It is my fault for telling everyone, but now I am embarrassed that I have gained 30 lbs back and it is noticeable.

My Bariatric Life - thank you for checking in on me. I am in therapy and hoping it will help. I have regained about 30 of the 70 lbs I lost on the lap band so I knew I had bigger issues than just the fat. You are very kind and I hope to be as compassionate as you are someday. Terry -
This is the oddest post I have ever seen. Got to page 5 and just gave up trying to understand this.
