You need a referral. I would ask your primary. I've heard good things about both in MN and FLA.

We have a campus in phoenix Arizona too. I work at the Florida campus. If you are near florida call 904-953-2000 and ask to speak to someone in the central appointment office. They'll tell you exactly what you need to do.

Thank you to all for your support and information...I'll be going to uw Madison university hospital next, there's a doctor there who has pioneered nerve pain treatment( love Google). And if they can't help me, it's off to mayo. By the way....I'm proud of all of us...doing great! I'm going to start really focusing on feeling good rather than how I look. So, I'm wrinkly, I can walk and swim, and I look pretty damn good in clothes. I'm 48, wrinkles were going to happen; now I'll be around to enjoy them!

Idk about u guys but..my butt hurts every time I sit for more than a few minutes! I don't miss being fat but I miss apparently having enough cushion back there to not make sitting down literally a pain in the rear! Car rides..work when I am sitting..it all pretty much sucks! Tell me I'm not the only one?? I love my new body..just not having to sit for long periods of time!!

I was the girl once nicknamed..."Big booty Judy." Needless to say that doesn't apply anymore.

Ok I have finally found a pic of when I really was at my heaviest. It was my husbands cousin who took it without me really knowing it cause I avoided pics at all cost. I kinda didn't really have many reference pics. I started crying seeing this. This reminds me just how wonderful rny was for me..not counting the curing sleep apnea and all the other health stuff. 13 more lb to my personal goal even tho my dr thinks I could still get a bit smaller..I think it just might be possible!

I do :) I honestly am trying hard to focus on the positive after losing the twins. Things still feel crazy and hurt so bad but there's still some good left in my life. I have my hubby and son and I can say I am blessed no matter how bad losing the babies hurt. If I ever get these hormones right...idk...at least I know I can get pregnant now. Rny was a success.

I admire your positive attitude, especially in the face if such a loss. I think of you often, and your family is in my prayers.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
