    How/when did you find your groove?

    Hey cranky but sincere question. Three different staff members with 3 differing opinions. All with fluids/ liquids Opinion# 1 add Miralax Opinion#2 Add beneficent Opinion# 3 stir in scoop of unflavored protein powder. Now if I do all that,its going to,look bad and taste/feel even worse. Do I take advice of ranking member, alternate the add-ons or what?

    Multivitamin

    Teeth, had enough testing of all types by now. Vitamin levels should be fine at my next office visit December 19th , Wonder if they call in a lab blood drew order before then? Being seen in the office every 10 weeks sucks badly! Am I supposed to quietly die in the meantime?

    Multivitamin

    I stood Flintstones only so long, nasty vile ground- up things. Evil taste designed by someone who did not have my best interest at heart. Then I took a small sip of liquid, held it in my mouth long enough to throw one of my small sized prenatal Spring Valley vitamins in, and float down with down with the waterm Figured if this kills me at least n9 one will have to scrape vitamin residue off my testing And it worked and still does. Just 1 prenatal a dayn no fuss, no folderall÷!!#

    Well there would be if a wandering gallstone blocked the opening of the pancreatic duct. With the blockage the fluid could start auto- digesting the gland. Worse case scenario, but scary to consider! 😪😥

    Protein water?

    23 long, no one wants to take me there, miles north of here. well I'll wait until tomorrow and try weighing options. I can find transport for doctors appointments but no one wants to take me shopping.
  9. Dr Needlman charged $5000, the hospital( OSU) charged $14,550 so there is almost $20,000. And a sleeve is $1000-1500 less. Wouldn't,it be nice if they gave =early,payer. discount?

    A lot of people seem to have to follow up with later gall bladder removal but I don't recall pancreatitis cases on here although I can see how there would be a possibility. I think to avoid gallstone difficulties is why many surgeons give a script,for ursadiol.
  18. My bari-friend Puppycat is also Monday, I am sure there are many others also, looks to be a very good Life-Changing day.

    Multivitamin

    Gummies usually not recommended because of their high corn syrup/ sugar,content. Isn't that,what you had surgery to escape? No fair jumping back into the fire when you escaped once!

    Bougie size

    A glorified catheter. Your surgeon puts it down into your stomach to measure the diameter he wants to leave your sleeve.before removing the rest of your no longer needed stomach remnant. In theory the smaller the diameter, the more restiction, and less can be eaten at your meals. Although there ate several common sixes your surgeon is skillful enough,i can gauge the right size for each,person. Might be judged by height, activity level,,what his instructors advised him or her when they were "baby" surgeons, just learning the trade. Many facets but you chose the best, now let the best work for YOU!

    Don't measure only pounds, measure inches lost and how you feel. Those are also important, the book of You that you are writing will still be a best seller, Believe in You- for you are great and good and you'll still show the world how things are done.
