  1. Started actigall today as prophylactic am 3 weeks out from being sleeved tmmw. I have been feeling like complete crud all day since I took it. A general feeling of indigestion. Intestinal cramping (already went today thanks this was after) Don't know what it could be. Everything I ate today I've had before today so nothing new. This is the only thing I can point to. Anyone else bad reaction to actigall?
  2. They pipe popcorn smell into theatre I heard?
  3. Was told I can do Special K as part of soft foods. I haven't yet. Started soft foods today and started with oatmeal.
  4. You should add the state for the bcbs as they're all different.
  5. I told everybody and their brother and those that have negative things to say can stuff it.
  6. Can you have the office staff write it and just wait for doc to get a signature? Or call you ob gyn and have them write it if possible.
  7. They wrote a letter recommending the surgery for you? Find that hard to believe and even harder to believe insurance accepted it.
  8. I agree with you. Food poisoning.
  9. About to eat a think thin bar. Let's hope it's better I get these at fairway market - they have a wall of different types of bars.
  10. I noticed fiber bars have sugar whereas the protein bars don't.
  11. Nothing has been written that would get a lawyer to take a case. She keeps repeating he's a good surgeon. It's Omar the coordinator Now again- am glad those really vehement bullying posts are gone. But this entire thread needs shutting down. Will email Alex.
  12. Had sashimi over weekend and was ok. No issues I didn't attempt sushi
  13. Am with moonlitestatbrite - who cares. Especially if it's a fat acceptance commentary. You should read that with a pound of salt.
  14. Really? I thought they were gross and disgusting and had a hard time with one. Just can't do it.
  15. I have tons of areas - all belly- itching where there are no incisions. It's the healing. My abdomen was pulled, inflated and god knows what else. Lotion and rub don't scratch
  16. Ok can we shut this thread down now? Seriously I feel for the victims, thanks for bringing it to everyone's attention, I appreciate and can read both sides of the debate. But the hatred and hostility on here is too much already. You're all attacking each other like high school girls and not acting like grown women with compassion for both sides of the argument. It went from being a debate to downright mma fighting. Enough already
  17. Wow that is amazing. I would agree it would make me uncomfortable as well. But truly amazing that some people are linked in like this.
  18. I was an overnight but was technically outpatient since it was considered a 23 hour stay.
  19. I lost 15 pounds in two weeks doing 2 protein shakes a day and 1 lean meat meal I could have as many raw veggies as I wanted. The veggies made the hunger disappear.
  20. I am figuring you live with her and other members? If so just try to avoid the treats. Maybe clear out a shelf in a cupboard of your go to things. I am sorry that they don't seem more supportive.
  21. Your 89 days Is on or about August 27 They did not accept the surgeon visit as my first visit
  22. Yes it has to be greater than or equal to 89. Reschedule that last appt just a little so it meets criteria
  23. I thought Medicaid paid everything?
  24. For me it was he first visit with the surgeon but your insurance will be the decider Call your insurance and get a copy of the approval guidelines
