  3. I am so sorry you are going through all of this. Hang in there. Have you talked with the surgeon about the issues you are having with his staff and paperwork? If not I would ASAP. Least us know how it turns out.
  4. Update.... Sleeved 7/1. SW: 280 CW: 189.4 Celebrated 90 lbs lost on my 5 month surgiversary. :-D Weight loss is beginning to slow down, I hope that means my hair will be back soon.
  5. I have a friend who used Dr. Terriccina for her lap band many years ago. She really likes him.
  6. I was sleeved July 1. Within 2 weeks I noticed that went I sat on the toilet my legs would get tingly. Now I get the tingling when I sit on the floor, put my feet up on a chair, etc. It will still randomly happen on the toilet too . My doc says that I probably have a nerve that lost its cushioning due to the loss of fat. Has anyone else been through this? If so is this permanent ?
  7. I was in the same boat. I didn't drop a size until around 30 or more lbs. I think I was just stuffing myself into my size 20 pants!
  8. Are you still having this problem? I was sleeved on July 1 and still am having tingling in my legs
  9. I was sleeved July 1 and I am down 49 lbs from my highest weight (1 week preop). Probably around 39 lbs since surgery.

  11. I was outpatient as most of Dr Clark's patient's are. I had issues after surgery and they didn't try to push me out. I left around 5 pm and I was the first surgery for that day.
  12. Thank you! I'm glad I'm not the only one.
  13. This might be TMI but I'm too embarrassed to call and ask my male doctor. I am 3 1/2 weeks out from my surgery and have lost about 35 lbs. The past week I have had a huge increase in vaginal discharge. It is like the kind you get right before ovulation. Has anyone else experienced this?
  14. I was sleeved July 1 and went home the same day. Surgery was at 7:15 am and I left at 5:00 pm. They would have had me leave earlier but I had a bad reaction to anesthesia and was having oxygen issues.

  18. I also am getting sleeved by Dr. Clark. My date is July 1. I am loving his Weight Management University. I hope it really helps with keeping the weight off. What was your impression/experience with it Papa Jack?
