  1. I recommend my surgeon, Dr. Roc W. Bauman, he's excellent!!!! He's very serious about my care & his patients! He's the Doctor of Carolinas Weight Loss Surgery in Concord, NC. He practices as bariatric surgeon @ CMC Northeast. He is accredited & his practice is considered a "Center of Excellence". Over 2500 surgeries with positive results. He personally offers free info sessions at his office...it's on the website when they're having a session. I think it's worth the time & they're very informative!!! Worth taking a listen to, especially if your in search of a surgeon or information!!! There's no obligation, it's just to educate YOU! WEBSITE: www.carolinasweightlosssurgery.com Hopeful this is helpful to those in NC area. I honestly wouldn't have considered a doctor without a rating like his. ***BE SAFE & REMEMBER TO DO YOUR RESEARCH!!! CWLS Office # 704-403-7580 His staff are awesome too! TAKE CARE Ms.DLH

  3. What an idiot!!! Is he even certified in Bariatric Surgery?! Keep pushing!!! It will work out...be your biggest advocate! REMEMBER...The squeak gets the oil Praying for you!
  4. Make sure they're still infusing fluids, you'll be ok for a bit without TPN BUT NOT FLUID!!!! TAKE CARE!!!! (I'm a RN, so I know a little bit healthcare wise...)
  5. Good advice from my doc which are also my requirements: 60oz Water 60g Protein & 60 minutes of walking All per day :-) Great effort! But do give yourself time to heal!
  6. Have they tried steroids (decadron) to decrease some of the swelling. I'm back in the hospital too, the steroids are helping tremendously, however it's still difficult getting my Fluid and Protein in. Hope this helps! Remember, you're your own advocate, stay squeeky to get things done and let them know exactly what you need and are feeling Take care!
  7. Any suggestions if Proteins to try?
  8. You may be dehydrated. I had my sleeve on 10/25, I had to come back yesterday to the hospital (I'm here now getting lots of fluids & nausea meds :-/....severely dehydrated! Couldn't get enough in... I'd call your Dr. or Nurse ASAP, hope this is helpful. Good luck to you.
  9. Having difficulty w/ nausea & getting my fluids & protein hoping it gets better soon!
