need some tough love from my fellow vets!
I had those symptoms and it turned out to be hyperparathyroidism. My calcium was mildly high for three years and I suffered from anxiety depression bone and muscle cramps and hot flashes and my upper chest would flush. They removed a tumor on my parathyroid ( inside my thyroid which was normal) and that was what I needed. If your calcium is elevated check your parathyroid hormone. It's more common than you'd think . And anyone with parathyroid symptoms should go to parathyroid. Com. Listen to Dr Norman he is THE expert and I found a great surgeon at Univ of Penn.

Recommitment
I am recommitting too . I have gained back 15 lbs and am only half way to goal. I lost 70 lbs since jan 2013 but my daughter and my two grand kids moved in and I live in food hell! I tried getting her to buy differently but now I realize its me that needs to change. I started this morning and am very serious about this. I missed my one year appointment with my Dr because I feel guilty. Dumb I know. I have medical problems like lipodystrophy and sjogrens and can't exercise easily so that has really hampered my loss. Since surgery last year I've had a surgery for hyperparathyroidism and have surgery next mo to repair my right foot because its hard to walk and a semi hit me last June messing up my back one herniated disk three buldging. These aren excuses just obstacles. Ii know i could have gone to a pool but i chose to eat wrong and now I'm choosing to fix this. No more excuses.

January 2013 Sleevers?
My surgery was 1-20-13. I've lost 70 pounds but have been stuck at this weight for two months. Has anyone gone back to just liquids for awhile and has it worked?

Ouch ! pain under my left breast and chest on the left side. What are the symptoms of a leak?
My surgery was Jan 20 this year. I am sure it must be reflux although I do take Prevacid for that. Thanks for all your input. I made a DR appointment.

Ouch ! pain under my left breast and chest on the left side. What are the symptoms of a leak?
I am having pain on my left side of chest and under my left breast. It has been happening for over a week now. At first I thought it might be stress but now I am wondering why it doesn't go away. I know it is probably not a leak but curious what it feels like. Thanks!
