Thanks everyone!

Thanks for the awesome post! Can't wait to see the additions.

I've been to the seminar and have gotten a few tests done. Waiting on my Dr.'s office to get more records to them. So I've just been researching on the internet alot and eating anything I can get my hands on until the day I can't do that anymore. I know, it's not good and I know I've gained some weight just in these last months waiting. I've been struggling with my weight since puberty. It wasn't so bad when I was young and playing any sport I could but even then it wasn't easy. I've had two c-sections with 10lb babies and a botched spinal fusion, then a revision surgery from the front and back. oww. Then I just had a spinal stimulator inplanted a few weeks ago. I'm nervous because I can't exercise now but I'm hoping when I can get some of this weight off it will help with the back pain. I live in Southern Maryland if anyone's close let me know. I love Reggae music so so much. If anyone else does too please let me know. I'm excited to be on this forum and can't wait to make lots of new friends and be able to help support and encourage others. Thanks, Karen

I'm 42 but my body feels like I'm alot older than that!So many back surgeries takes it's toll.

OMGoddness! I'm really glad you posted this. I'm just starting the process but I've allready informed my husband that he's in for a change after my procedure!ROFLOL I would of never thought anything of it.

You are definately not alone! I use to just use pads but the Poise are just better. My kids like to tease me and call me Grandma too. I've had so many surgeries and they've been there to help me always but you just gotta laugh about it sometimes. It's ridiculous! lol

Yeah, me too! I have to have a pad on also. We live in MD and go to NC Outer Banks area alot and I went to the bathroom at a stop got back on the road and had to go again immediately. It was insane. By the time we got to the next stop I was about to go on the side of the road! It sucks!

OMGoodness! This is totally embarassing, but I've had 2 c-sections with 10lb babies, 2 back surgery's one going through the front again and I have horrible incontenence! I laugh, cough, sneeze, breathe,lol. I was laughing hard one day and of course crossing my legs and my husband was laughing and he said, Your just like a little doll, you could be Polly Pee Pee! I know my blatter is screwed but I do hope that it will help a little after surgery. I'm just starting, waiting on my Dr.s to get my records sent.
