  2. I'm 39 and live in Louisiana. I've been overweight since my early 20s. I have high blood pressure, severe reflux, and terrible snoring. My mil died at age 55 from complications related to obesity, and I'm scared of leaving my children. I have 2 daughters who are 10 and 13 and they are my reason for doing this. I have support at home and am scheduled for a sleeve on apr 22. Surgery doesn't scare me but I am apprehensive about afterwards with the getting used to eating differently. I am nervously excited and so thankful for this forum. That's my story!
  3. Got my EGD today and now waiting on preop lab, xray, and EKG. It's getting real!!

  6. Did anyone have severe reflux before surgery? How is it afterwards?
  7. I'm on my 2nd Mirena and I LOVE it! The first time I was about a year after childbirth and I did cramp for about 30 minutes. Then it was fine! The 2nd time didn't hurt at all! I haven't had a cycle in about 9 years!
  8. Mine has a $400 program fee.
  9. I am scheduled April 22 in Shreveport! Good to see Louisiana folks on here! I live near Natchitoches!
  10. I'm an MRI tech, so this was a really important question for me!!! The staples are titanium, and have no bearing on your MRI at all!!
  11. Looking at the 1st week in April. WooHoo!!
