Post Nasal Drip after Banding ?
Glad to help! One thing if you do forget to take it, you might not even actually know until you get sick. My Dr told me it is because the pouch is so small when you eat, the product of the drip has to come out some way, and it will be your mouth....gag.!!! Had they told me that before I had surgery I would have never gone without meds for it!

Nsv!!!!
Congratulations to you girl!!! ANd hey, if it was a NICE car and he looked hot why not??? Just kidding I am married...lol....

Spouse not supporting the new you?
Hello all, I want to know if I am the only one in this situation or I am not alone. Maybe someone can help me. My DH pushed me to loose weight. And now that I have he no longer kisses me, minimal sex, never tells me I look good, the list can go on and on.....I feel like he doesn't support the new me, the more I loose the farther away we are. Anyone else experience this? Is there a way to help it or am I just doomed?

My doctor is putting on phentermine
I used it too and thought I was in heaven. No cravings, never wanted to eat ect. But then, I became contantly shaking, blurred vison. I couldn't sleep at all so I had to start taking pills to sleep. I became addicted to them and when the Dr tried to pull me off, I got ugly. Use with extreme caution, because as one said everyone is different. I did loose a lot of weight that came right back after I quit it....

Post Nasal Drip after Banding ?
I have a huge problem with this, but the drip goes right down into my tummy. I have to have Zyrtec and Benedryl at night. It helps A LOT! If I don't take it I am constantly throwing up. Even with the big hassle, it is still worth it to get the band and deal with the problem. Just make sure you have a good medication to avoid the draining into your stomach. Trust me on that! Good Luck!

WTH....rotfl.....omg....Brandi! :eek: I was laughing so hard I cried. What a great PSA! I am glad that ALL Brandi's even those with an i instead of a y are crazy! lol....my DH was thinking of doing it, and since all we do is fight, I am thinking it would be a great idea for him. Mean, bitch aren't I? lol.... I had a truly awsome day yesterday. I went swimsuit shopping because I have to have one for Cedar Point. Anyhow, I went to Fashion Bug, I was truly upset because they had nothing in my size, well....the girl comes over to me and asked me if I need help. I was upset and told her there was nothing in this store in my size. Without even asking what size I was she said "That is because you are on the wrong side" YEAH!!! So she walked me over to the other side. I have never been there before....lol....I got a suit and a LARGE shirt...a freaking LARGE!!!!!!!!!!!! NO more 4X!!! EVER EVER EVER again! Happ belated birthday BK! I am glad you had a good day!

Breast lumps and ripples
Hey Faith!!! Speaking of surger, when is yours again? As a nurse what are the chances that I won't have to have surgery? I am wondering because I know the point it to kill and shrink the cells. Can they just kill them all? Wishful thinking maybe... Thanks for your support....lol....I need to give it up now and get out of this fog I am in!

Girls, I need to use you all as inspiration to get my ass back to the gym....I need to SOOOO bad.....kick me girls!

Breast lumps and ripples
Hello ladies I am sorry I know you all probly want to choke me right now. I have been dealing with all of this, and well I choose to hide. Can't hide from yourself though... The lowdown.... Pre cancer cells. I am VERY lucky that I lost weight, they are telling me that is the only way I could have ever found it. Treatment will be a few rounds of directed radiation, and surgery to remove what will be left. Possibly followed up again by radiation. It was caught early, not a ton of side effects from the radiation. NO chemo at all. SO all in all, not as bad as I thought. My sincere thanks to all of you for your support! Hugs!

Hey girls! I miss all of you! I have been in a terrible funk I have just chosen not to share with ya'all. Breast issue not as bad as I thought. Pre cancer cells. SO I will have some brief raditaion and surgery to remove it. NOT life threatening at all. BUT all of that, plus man troubles have gotten my scale to move 2 pounds the wrong way, but whatever! lol... How are all of you?

Robin Good luck. I have had several unfills after them pushing me to do something I know better. Isn't it funny they never believe us that we actually KNOW our own body? Good luck, after a few days you should be very happy. I have been there many times!
