I saw Dr.Lavin in Covington at his offices there. I live in MS, and I have several friends that used his team of doctors. I actually saw Dr. Lavin on Good Morning America back in June discussing a new procedure I believe he invented.

That's how I found about Dr. Lavin. I was initially interested in the POSE procedure but my BMI is too high for it. I talked to Dr. Lavin on the phone for about 20 minutes and got a great feeling from him. I also did research on him and he's top in this field.

I was scheduled for aug 28th but found out today my TSH level is too high - so Until I can get this down from39 to 9 or lower I am unable to proceed. I am 8 days into my liquid diet phase - and I am so disappointed.

Any one else ever had this problem with your Thyroid TSH level being too high and if so how long to get the numbers to drop?

      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.
