    The blood test results came back- I ovulated! We just have to wait a couple more days to find out if I'm pregnant. At least if it didn't happen this time around, we know I responded to the treatments and we can try again. But hopefully there's a little baby in there somewhere....

    I don't think it's so much the act of frying as the high calorie oils that normally accompany it. Scrambled with some Pam I would think would be fine!

    Plusgel (antacid liquid)
    Mavidol SL Ketorolaco 30 mg (sublingual pain meds)
    Facelit Cefalexina 500 mg (antibiotic)
    It looks like you continue taking the meds for about 5 days after discharge.
    I was just discharged yesterday

    I would talk to your family doctor. Could be some sort of artery narrowing or blockage, sometimes symptoms are induced by exercise (increased blood flow hindered by narrow passageways).

    Melissa D got a reaction from aviiva in Gnc Coupon, Pre-Op   
    My friend gave me a 30% off coupon to GNC & I thought I would go use it today because I leave for surgery Monday morning.
    I know you guys say not to stock up because tastes change, but if you were me, what do you think I should get?
    I'm thinking powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury, Isopure & Protein Shots?

    Melissa D got a reaction from NEVA907 in Here In San Diego...doesn't Feel Real Yet...   
    I'm headed to San Diego Monday and I'm also questioning my decision. Never thought in a million years that I would question it. I've been wanting surgery for over 10 years (joined obesity help in April 2002).
    Now that it's becoming so real and so imminent, I'm just really questioning it. Logically I know it's my solution, just emotionally I'm struggling a bit. I guess that's perfectly normal though, so I'm just trying to hang out & chill a bit.
