Newly diagnosed with MS. i need advice from other sleevers dealing with this condition



Recommended Posts

After going through multiple surgeries and hospitalizations over the last 6 years, I just found I have MS. Are there any other Sleevers dealing with MS? How do you handle your medication and treatment? What helps and what should I expect to experience? Any advice would be appreciated

I'm so sorry to hear about your diagnosis. I don't have MS, but was diagnosed with Sle, better known as Lupus. I had VSG on 5/5/14 and I am down 40lbs but I do have to take meds because of the Lupus. The reason I chose VSG was because I knew I would be on meds. I have extreme fatigue along with kidney involvement. Anything I can do to support you, I'm here.

      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! 😞
