LadyKatie got a reaction from spiritstalker in auto immune disorders and the sleeve
I have rheumatoid arthritis. I was sleeved may 22 and I have been off my meds for 4 months now and I feel wonderful! It sucked being off the meds pre-op but as soon as I HDTV the surgery I felt fantastic. I don't know how long I'll feel this good, but for now I will stay off my meds and enjoy every minute of it. The surgery was the best decision of my life. I know I am not far along, but I know it will be. The main reason I got it, was in hopes of helping my RA. Less weight on my joints=feeling better hope this helps!!

LadyKatie got a reaction from Brenda0928 in Autoimmune Issues and VSG?
Good! That makes me feel better. I'm 22 and was diagnosed at 14, but suffered with it since 2nd grade (labs didn't show it). I have always hated ring overweight, but my main goal is to get my RA under control. My doctors tell me I pretty much have no chance of remission except during pregnancy. I want to prove them wrong. I want to know what it's like to wake up and feel good!!

Thanks everyone for so many options, because all doctors are different ill probably look into the ones especially for bariatric patients to be safe.

LadyKatie got a reaction from PIRATE~MOM in How is everyone handling the BBQ's today
I was just sleeved on the 22nd (5 days post op) so I still have no desire to eat and I'm still on my full liquid diet. However, I will say they made the first good smelling thing today, which was a banana bread. Normally I would hate banana cake but today it looked good. Again, I'm not hungry and food seems gross, but I am already sick of juices, Water, Decaf tea, broths, and Jello.< /p>
