Great guy. I ended up with an open RNY due to

Scar tissue and an incisional hernia 7 months later and he did that repair laparoscopic in Nov. Make sure u write down all questions so u don't forget at your appts. He is a teaching Dr so u will have residents and student nurses in your surgery and possibly performing it. They are the ones who come see u first thing after surgery. Keep up with pain meds and walk, walk, walk!

thanks, I hope I don't have a student doing my surgery! I'll roll my gurney right out of there! ;) I have one more meeting with him so I'll be sure to write down my questions.

Hi all - I'm in the greater Cleveland area here in Ohio. I am an employee of and will be having my surgery at Cleveland Clinic with Dr. Philip Schauer. Just one last pre-op appt scheduled for 3/5/14 before I have my final clearance then I'll be waiting for the approval from insurance (which I'm told is just a few days turnaround) then I'll have my date.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
