    Crystal Light On The Go

    Some of you might remember that I wrote asking if any of you could find "Crystal Light On The Go" in your local grocery stores. ( These are the individial size packets that are for bottled water) Well I have learned that they are not sold in grocery stores but I have located them on this site: http://www.discountcoffee.com/CrystalLightLemonade.htm Now I wish we lived closer to each other... free shipping with a $50.00 order! I'd like some of all the flavors:) Maybe some of you that use Dr. Speigel in Pt. Neches Texas might be interested in group buying?:guess They are also on eBay, but not as cheap as this site.

    Help! The pain is awful!

    Yes it would be ringing...cuz I would be on the other end! Yes I plan to come on Thursday and also my husband is too.
  11. As stated in an earlier post, I had my first lap fill on July 19th and during the wee hours of this morning I started having awful pain .... like terrible indigestion only it was in the stomach area and went clear through to my back! I thought I was certainly having a heart attack! So when my husband got up at 4AM to go to work, I squeaked out ..."Please bring me some water" After drinking some water, I was able to relax and get some sleep. Got up feeeling fine. Then I started sipping some slim fast and BAM started all over again! The only way I was able to live was to make myself BELCH....over and over! Sounded like an 'Ole drunk man! Finally it passed..after several hours. Have any of you had that??? Now I am afraid to drink anything or even take my meds! Help!!! Any advice?

    Insurance does pay!!

    My health problems is why my surgeon wrote the letter. BTW it was his idea not mine, but now I reap the benifits. I have had 7 back surgeries due to degenerative disc disease and the extra 147 pounds I was carring around sure didn't help matters. Plus I have high BP, sleep apnea, asthma and due to a bad case of meningitis, I have had 10 brain surgeries in the past 2 1/2 years for a VP shunt. So that is why I am sure the insurance paid. Good Luck to you.

    Insurance does pay!!

    My insurance paid 100%. My neurosurgeon wrote the insurance a letter requesting that they allow me to have the banding and cover all charges and they did! Good Luck!

    WOW DOWN 77lbs

    Yes I have....like feeling like you are having a heart attack! Well when I called the office and FINALLY got to talk to a human... ...I was told I was taking in too much air when I eat or drink. So now I am being very careful. Before I swallow food I exhale and before I drink I do the same. Last night it was soo bad and the only relief I got was to keep making myself belch! But I did that soo much that I threw up. Think I will go get some GasX and keep it on hand. Now we know how a colicy baby feels:( I NEVER had this until after my first fill 6 days ago. Hope you soon feel better!

    Help! The pain is awful!

    I thought I got there early! My appt. was @ 2pm, but it was nearly 4 when I got otta there. Of course he wasn't even there till nearly 3Pm and then he was sooooo rushed, he has no time for questions. Is there a charge for these support groups? Is this the one that meeets every other Thursday at the Holiday inn?

    How much? How often?

    Oh I am so happy to hear from someone that has used Speigel!! When I called his office I spoke to his nursse(Melissa) and she said I was taking in too much air when I drink or eat. She said I would have to learn to exhale and then drink. I am with you about the office. Where do you live? Maybe close to me?
