    HIPAA violation: What would you do?

    Yes, report it! Being in medical field for over 25yrs, yes its a mistake, but it should not go uncorrected by management. What if you knew the person and it contained sensitive information? One thing to never forget, if that was information 9n your loved one or yourself, sent to someone else, wouldn't you want the best outcome? It may happen more than you know...

    Hi! I had sleeve 6/2014,revised to RNY 10/2016. Have lived on protonix, omeprazole etc for over 13yrs. Before revision, couldnt eat a hard boiled egg without being sick! Now, amazing difference. Have been off ALL reflux meds and no Heartburn or reflux whatsoever!! So glad I converted. Not a. Easy decision for me either, but came down to not even being able to eat to live! Good luck and msg me if any questions... Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

  6. Keep do the milk of mag.... i am now 10 days post revof sleeve to RNY and just went to bathroom last night. Did Mom 2xday! Was worried also..... my stomach was killing me too, getting better.... my problem is i lost a lot of blood, so counts are all very low and i have no energy! I remember the first surgery and felt similar after not eating for so long. It passes, once eating again we slowly get back to ourselvrs, our new selves.....

    Hi! I had GERD before my sleeve in 2014. Now 2 yrs later, on twice the Gerd meds and now have a esophageal stricture, having RNY on Tuesday.... I didn't want RNY either,but now no other option. I can't eat without getting sick, and that's very little. Only you can decide what is best for you. Just giving you my story... Best of luck with your decision.

  13. Did u fill it yet? I had orthopedic surgery and had to do. It is very expensive!! Insurance covered 20 days I think, but after that the syringes were crazy money. Hope your RX covers it...it's not that bad, my son (12) used to give them to me, he loved it! Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

  17. I had sleeve in 2014, having converted to RNY on Tuesday 10/11... live on South shore, surgery at Tobey hospital. Groups are good, but hard for me to get there. Would love to get something going.... Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App
  18. Hi all I am scheduled Tuesday 10/11 for bypass from vsg (6/12/14). I have bad stricture and can't tolerate much food at all without getting sick. This has been since January and ready to move on. I'm pretty much at my goal weight, so one concern is loosing too much more... Anyone else? Glad to hear I'm not the only one having revision...
