Milestones And Sadness



Recommended Posts

Yesterday I had an MRI and was amazed that I was able to fit in the machine with out my sides rubbing on the sides of the bed. :D I was laying very comfortable. B) But I need to call the office because I am now starting to lose my hair. :wacko: I am glad that it is thick but the clumps keep clogging my tub. ;) All I can do now is just laugh about my saying. Well beauty is painful.

You are losing hair because your body is using the nutrients you get to run your heart, liver and other major organs. The hair folicals get the "shaft" hee hee. All kidding aside, there are some things you can do. Nioxon is a Shampoo and conditioner that stimulates the folicals to promote new growth. There is also a Vitamin called Bioten and you can take 5000mg, they are soft gel tabs easy to swallow.

Most women lose their hair and there is almost nothing you can do about it. I bought the Nioxin and the Biotin. Neither worked. My hair just kept falling out and falling out. But, thankfully it stopped after a few months of it falling out. My surgeon told us it is our hormones that cause the Hair loss. He said it rarely happens to the men in his practice. They think it is actually our body shedding the hormones stored in our fat cells. He compared it to post pregnancy. A lot of women lose their hair after having a baby due to a hormonal change. You can try the Nioxin and Biotin. I think I wasted my money. I do take Biotin now to help with the regrowth though. I do notice a difference in my nails, they are stronger.

Thank guys I call the doctor and he wants me to do some blood test he thinks I need more Vitamins. But I am glad that it stops soon. I been going thru this for a month now. I didn't think I was going to have it because I am three months out. Milestone and sadness are the hardest happiness to deal with.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
