mrsnate reacted to Lauranbob Mc in Considering Vsg Surgery - Wondering How Common Revisions Are Down The Road?
I think she sees a lot of people on here talking about revisions. A lot of people are going from lap-band to the sleeve. your sleeve will work for you as long as you take care of it. dont stretch it out and you'll be good. As an ER nurse, to me, this is the safest of all the weight loss surgeries with the least complications. Remember, I see ALL the screw-ups and I had a sleeve

It is probably coming off carbs and sugar.. Drink lots of Water and it will help.. Everyday it will get better.
It is much easier after surgery..

mrsnate got a reaction from cari1976 in Preop Diet And I'm Starving!
Yesterday was my first day and it wasn't so bad. Today is way harder! Plus, I'm on straight liquids. Only shakes, broth, sf Jello and sf Popsicles. I'd kill for a piece of chicken.

mrsnate got a reaction from Almostthere34 in What Do You Tell The Nosey Peopke At Work?
This exactly. I have no problem telling if they ask, but I won't just shout it out either. I understand some people's desire for privacy, but I'm okay with admitting I needed help.

What about HIPPA rights? You don't have to tell them exactly what you're doing.

mrsnate got a reaction from Joni in For Those Who Love Soda...
Joni, you took you the words right out of my mouth! I'm a Diet Coke Addict and about a month away from surgery. I'm seriously stressing over quitting. Absolutely ridiculous! It comforts me to know that I'm not the only one and that I can hope I don't desire it anymore.

mrsnate got a reaction from Odee in Ulcers Found During Endoscopy
Im going through this right now too. I had an upper GI today which showed some ulcers. My surgeon said that we have to find out if the ulcers are caused by bacteria (they can test with blood or a biopsy). If they are, they give a 2 week regimen of antibiotics and approx 6 weeks of an antacid (like prilosec). I still don't know if mine are bacterial, but once I do I'll be able to start treatment. Are you as disappointed as I am? I'm sooo bummed to be having a setback. My surgeon said it's important to be healthy and fully healed...at least that is his rules.
Good luck to you. I'm anxious to hear what your doc says!
