  4. I certainly hope that all is well. I personally would NOT have gone thru it without all of the pre op. Statistics show such a high mortality rate in those cases of no pre op. I pray that all hasb& goes well.

  10. I've been having some discomfort to pain in the lower left tummy. Anyone have an idea what it could be? 25 days post op
  11. Remember to try & stay away from the processed meats. Though it taste good it may not be good for you. As someone else suggested the can chicken & tuna are good for ya. Good Luck to ya.
  12. I'm sorry but are you hiding that your intend to have the band? If not then shouldn't those people be supporting you. Just sayin.

  14. Trenz, even baby gas drops will work, anything with Simethicone ingredient. Will work
  15. Trenz, you should have been sent home with something. That's just wrong.

  21. I was able to have my bladder lifted, apr, podiatrist, nutritionist, all the pre op procedures(endo, liver biopsy, sleep study, etc). I personally will stand by them to this point (8 months of care & procedures). Things happen. If you ask the coordinators & dr.s they have reviewed the individual cases & I'm told that the patients in question didn't follow all of the rules & procedures. So there for your risk is higher.
  22. Well I'm doing just fine. They were wonderful. The one's being sued are the 2 dr.s who own some of the clinics. My dr lee is new to the practice. I spoke of him & his staff. I deal with the same people all of the time & Tri City Hospital isn't part of these claims. Everyone has their own opinion & mine has been a awesome experience.
  23. Candtwalker, Do you know the name of the med for neuropathy. I'm willing to change to anything smaller.
