I'm sorry your going through thisI planned, booked, and paid for a vacation from caregiving for myself and Sis as a companion, at the end of this month. Then Hubby was admitted to the hospital yesterday and they are talking about hospice care, in-patient.
We were going to Los Angeles, then on to Catalina Island for four nights, and two nights in Hollywood to visit with old friends from our hometown. Most of this was purchased non-refundable. I am hoping I can just reschedule instead of losing roughly 5k.
This has been a trying few days. The paramedics had to call the police to forcibly remove him from the house as he would not cooperate with anyone. He said he wanted a court order or to be arrested to take him to the hospital.
Then, to top it off, I fell trying to get into the ambulance, which has a very high step, possibly tearing my meniscus.
Oy, what a day(s) I've had today.
I am sad and in pain. Mostly sad. I miss the hubby I used to have. We went to Catalina together once and he would get a boner while we were frolicking in the pool. That will not happen again I am sad to say.

Could you explain to your surgeon that you need the procedure done in a limited time frame and ask to be fast tracked

Well for losing weight most places want the meal shakes to be whey isolate. There are a few out there most people like the Syntrax Nectar line because they have fruity flavors also Unjury is really good and the make the standard choc vanilla strawberry and a chicken Soup one that I want to try

the way it hits me is sedative so I always take it after dinner with my other night time meds. I'm glad I could help working in a psych office has its perks

I work in a psych office and am on latuda my self are you taking it with food it is weight nuetral but I find I get hungry with it on an empty stomachHi everyone. I had my sleeve 1 1/2 years ago and hit goal for the most part. In the perfect world I would be down another 8 lbs. but I am 5'7" tall and weigh 163 lbs. from 247 lbs. I recently started a new med called Latuda for anxiety to go with my Lexapro. I've been on Lexapro for years and I'm used to the side effects. It's been for the most part weight neutral for me. From what I've read, the Latuda is supposed to be weight neutral, however I think it has increased my appetite a bit. My question for those of you on meds that increase your appetite is, what have you done to combat this? I've done so well and I feel great on the meds but don't want to gain. Suggestions??

Another sign off sleep apnea is feeling like your spinning in your sleep. Imagine when you were a kid and youd spin in circles until you fell down it feels like that but you never fall down just keep spinning

The reason my doc doesn't do Vitamins early on is your still healing and it might be hard on your tummy for those vitamins to go down
