Right before I had my surgery a good friend of mine asked what my goal size was, and I told her a 10. The day I came home from surgery, she came over and had bought me a pair of jeans from Victoria's Secret in size 10. I remember looking at them thinking, "wow, I will never fit in these tiny things".

I wore them today :)

Had two more TIAs yesterday....happy happy to be alive. well since I cant take baby aspirin I have to take plavix and they just found out that plavix can cause bleeding in gastric bypass patients now I don't know what to do! I know that God will get me through this and everything will be fine now thats a victory!

Omygosh! I hope that your doctors can find a suitable drug. I was on Coumadin/Warfarin blood thinners for a year following a pulmonary embolism. Once the correct dosage is figured out, it wasn't a big deal. There are some tricky dietary restrictions, but nothing compared to post RNY.

Sending lots of prayers your way. Maybe Coumadin or Lovenox? Hang in there.

The tests show no major stroke ( thank god) the other answer could be atypical migraines...no answer for that, unfortunately. Stroke - like symptoms. Very scary stay away from stress, avoid hypoglycemia. Don't drive, etc

thank you for the well wishes

Thank you for your prayers and kind thoughts.

Look into adding L-arginine to your Vitamins. Its an over the counter supplement that relaxes your blood vessels. (Dilates them) if you have high blood pressure start with 6x 1000mg capsules a day, 2 per meal.

If you have low blood pressure start with half of that. It's absolutely amazing stuff. Google it.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
