looking for DFW area members



Recommended Posts

I would really like to get a group together in the DFW area. We could meet once a month or more, exchange contact info, etc. It would really help to have others to contact to help get through every stage of this incredible process. Of course, we could meet and walk too.

OMG! Dr. Castro is the Dr who is doing my surgery, too! How did it go? Where did you have it done? I have to go to Carrollton with my insurance. How are you feeling? I am full of questions! :)

I was sleeved June 11th by Dr. Davidson at Forest Park....we currently live out of state, but our house is up for sale and we are moving home. Would love to meet up with y'all if you've got a group together...I know this thread is a little older, but it looks like some people are still posting; I think there's still some interest!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
