I was just discharged from MI Doctor a few hours ago, now at the Marriott. I had Dr. Garcia. This is a small, boutique, hospital but it is much better than a surgical clinic, IMHO, because of the multiple nursing staff and various doctors on duty at all hours. It isn't fancy, but the internet is BLAZING fast and they helped me out a great deal. They did leave my IV in too long also and my BP spiked, but it came down when that was pulled. I've been peeing non-stop since then. The only thing I didn't like was the drain but that's pretty common. It is near a major thoroughfare, so bring air plugs although if you go through Ready4Achange, they will give you a "welcome" kit with ear plugs in it.

When you are up for it and don't mind I know all of us would love to hear a detailed account of your experience.

      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! 😞
