    Alcohol?

    Ummmm..tequila. I love tequila. Beachgurl...I'm not sure but I haven't heard of that. I Dont know why so many different docs say soooo many different things

    Alcohol?

    Lol. Good. I never get tipsy. I'm assuming cause I was heavy. How much can u drink before getting tipsy?

    all over body lift?

    4000 for a belly button fix?!?!? :/ goodness, that's even pricey.
  10. Right after surgery... Is the pain like incision pain or deep inside abdominal pain? And anyone who has gotten gallbladder removed WAY BEFORE the WLS surgery.. Is the pain similar to that??
  11. Lol... Ohhhh good!!!!
  12. Thanks kmill. I've read a couple of stories that ppl didn't have to take RA meds anymore. I really really hope that's my case too!!
  13. I'll probably trigger the fibro for you temporarily, but in the long run it may totally help with less weight. I'm fully aware that I may go into a RA flare because I have to come off my RA meds, but if weighing less in the future will put less stress on my joints, then I'll take the flare. Good luck
  14. The NJ Bariatric center always has two of their doctors in the room doing the surgery. It kinda puts my mind as ease a little knowing there's more than one doc in there.(four eyes are better than two, I guess...lol ) Anyone else get two docs in the room?
  15. Hello all... I know this is a super old post, but any updates on how you all are doing with an autoimmune disease and being sleeved??
  16. Go ahead and ask. I even asked my surgeons if they have any history of substance abuse. It is YOUR life, by no means should you feel like you're offending someone.
  17. Hello, Of all the Protein powders on the photo I posted, can you guys recommend what you think is the tastiest, or even if you think one is terrible, let me know! Im trying to avoid the trial and error! This is a list that my NUT gave me to get started on.
  18. has anybody taken celebrex right before and after the surgery? I have to come off of Enbrel for my RA but my Rheumatologist said celebrex should be ok, I'm guessing that he's not thinking of ulcers. I'm confirming that with the surgeon but just wanted to know if anybody else has taken it during the process.
  19. Thanks Selena, do you take it for RA? I just spoke to my PA at the Bariatric center...and she said that when we get closer to the date, they'll adjust it to not taking it for 3days before rather than the normal 7 days. And I can start taking 3 days after, but with a nexium or something.
  20. Everything I read makes my stomach turn. This person experienced the dumping syndrome with the sleeve?!? http://www.cracked.com/article_21828_6-bizarre-things-nobody-tells-you-about-weight-loss-surgery.html
  21. Hello. I'm from NJ also. My surgery date is Jan 21st, how are you both feeling?
  22. What's the deal with alcohol? When can you have it post op? I am no way a big drinker, but i do like an occasional night out. Does it affect you differently? What can you NOT drink? Can you have a lot, or only a small amount? My date is scheduled for 1/21, I'm guessing celebrating st. Paddy's day is out of the question??! Lol
  23. Hello, just emailed my patient navigator at my Dr.s office and she's submitting my request today to Aetna. She said 7-10 business days, maybe sooner. . Wish me luck!!!! Im praying that I'm approved!!!
