    Wow, seriously sounds like some insecure ppl around you guy's.
    So sorry for the way that you are being treated. It's very sad but maybe your journey is intimidating them.
    Just try to move on and just be yourself.
    Good luck

    Med28,
    Maybe your boss is hearing comments about your success and is just trying to nip a problem that could occur in the bud before it happens.

    Laura,
    I am waiting for approval from my insurance companies for the RNY revision surgery from the sleeve surgery 2 1/2 years ago.
    I never thought once I was told that all my medical problems would be solved with the sleeve surgery to consult any of my regular Drs.I thought that these surgeon's do this everyday so they know what is the best way to go.
    So I just went with the surgeon's suggestion that the sleeve was best for me.
    I had severe reflux disease, type 2 diabetes, HBP,High cholesterol, asthma and arthritis.
    My diabetes is gone, HBP,High cholesterol are gone. Reflux was gone for 6wks and now is worse than ever since the surgery.
    I lost 87 lbs and went from size 22w to 24 w to a 12 ladies.
    My suggestion is if you have medical issues consult each of the Drs.then weigh your options.
    Good luck

    Thanks for the replies. I'm scared to have a sleeve done and down the road regret not getting the bypass done.

    if you have GERD, strongly consider bypass. The sleeve often (but not always) can make that worse. Bypass often improves or cures it. Otherwise, either one is a good surgery. I've known people who've had great success with both.

    I’m 7 days post op. My revision from sleeve to bypass was March 23rd. I had really bad GERD even with liquids. I’m on Clear Liquids right now and I’ve had tea which usually causes an issue, but so far so good. I don’t feel that burning in my throat are feel like gagging anymore. So I’m glad I did it. RNY all the way!😉

    We all need tips,encouragement and just an outlet to vent with ppl that are going through the same process that we are.
    Your not being a taker you're accepting the friendship, kindness and carrying of an amazing community of which you are a part of now.
    You've been through hell and back and we are your new support group.
    It's easier to accept tips and help sometimes from people you're not familiar with because you don't have to worry about being judged or expected to do anything other than what you can do.
    Good luck with your journey and your surgery.

    I am two weeks post op at the moment and still on liquids and liquid mushies (soup mushed up etc). I still have a lot of shoulder pain - the doctor said it is due to diaphragm issues. I also have a pain like a severe stitch mostly on the left side, and due to food restrictions am very weak.
    I am looking forward to gradually improving.
