Where Is Everyone From?



Recommended Posts

Raised in Northern Virginia/Washington DC and went to boarding school in southern Virginia. I now reside in Pittsburgh, PA. (Everywhere I go it's the same thing- "You're not from around here, are you?!") ;)

Eunice La. But been living in Lafayette La for 9 years now.

We were down there a couple of years ago with the Savoir (sp?) family for the mardi gras run :) What a hoot! And the people were lovely.

I went Oct 24 to Spokane to Rockwood clinic. Great experience so far. My MD was great. I am doing follow up here with my family MD but will go back to Spokane in 6 months. Everyone was very supportive. Being an OR nurse myself I knew what I wanted in a doctor and Alaska just didn't have it. Where are you in Alaska? Did you have surgery here?

I am in Alaska and in Washington state so I had it in Washington. Specialty care is such a challenge in Alaska!

I'm glad you have good support there. It helps to be "in the business" though I'd bet.

I had the surgery with one doc and that went badly so I ended up with Virginia Mason and they're beyond fabulous. Kind of like Regional on steroids :) (I had my baby there and loved that hospital....if one can love a hospital LOL).

Are you in Anchorage?

      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! 😞
