    I have kaiser...so I called the advice nurse and she was sooooo not helpful. Tried telling me it was a neck injury from when I was rearended 4 months ago and that I should take motrin. I called my surgeon first thing this morn and he called back right away and sent me for labs. He said he thinks it's low Calcium. Should hear from him tommorrow.

    Hi, I'm Melanie. I'm a 34 year old mom of 4. I've struggled with weight since puberty, and finally decided enough was enough. I had my sleeve last Tuesday, the 2nd. Everything went well. The first couple days were rough, more emotionally than physically. Things seem to be getting easier every day Anyhow, just wanted to say hi. I'm very grateful to have found this place
