My Name is Sassyann

I had my band surgery on December 24th, 2010. I started my process back in April of 2010 , and as of today I have lost 63lbs. I had my first fill on the 17th of Jan,2011 and will have my second one on the 14th of Feb 2011.

I went to my first PCP visit on the 31st of Jan and didn't have a good review. My A1C was 8.2 and I was told that my blood was to thick. Never had thick blood befor. I will go back on the 17th for more blood work and see if I need to have blood drown out of my system.

Not to happy at the present time, just a little nervish.

with surgery being so close into the mix....and what is your intake like? I would think your A1C would not go down until you have settled down into eating healthier and starting to exercise as well. As for your blood work, it sounds as if your iron is high? Are you drinking enough fluids? Even though 64 ozs is the allotted amount, I find that I have to intake 80oz to maintain hydration status, though this would not necessarily cause "thick blood". Best wishes.
