Anybody Else With Dr Kelly On January 25, 2012



Recommended Posts

Looking for surgery buddies with Dr Kelly on January 25, 2012? I didn't use any of the coordinators to book as I booked directly through Dr Kelly himself. I've spoken to him several times and feel real confident. I had a previously was banded October 2010 with Dr Ortiz, but decided to go with Dr Kelly as I wanted to be in a real hospital instead of the OCC Clinic. I am excited to get this !#&%* band out of me and get on with my life!

Is it cheaper to book through Dr.Kelly rather than to use a coordinator? I was quoted 5,700 by a coordinator is that more expensive than just booking it through him? Oh and by the way Good luck on your surgery today!!!! =)

I booked thru Dr Kelly (jrkelly45@hotmail.com). $5500. Sleeved 12/28/11. No pain or nausea. I went by myself and had zero problems. HTH. I brought a cashiers check with me and had to remind Dr Kelly to get it!

Hi all, I had surgery yesterday & It went well but I literally feel like I was run over by a bus! I'm not kidding. This was a sleeve revision so I knew it was going to probably be worse than the band... and I was right. I've been trying to walk as much as I can, but still sore. Not really any pain just exhausted and sore. Skinny girl here I come!

Awww you poor thing!! Yeah, I've heard from a lot of folks that there is much more pain with a revision. Don't overdo it, but yeah, walk as much as you can, it will help. It'll get better everyday though!! As soon as you can have Protein Shakes, try to get in some Protein, it'll help with the healing and nutrition. Take care and congrats on being sleeved!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
