You asked what I was thinking? I'm both black and white. I don't identify with any one race.

Has anyone had their sleeve right after having a baby? Regrets? Was it hard to hold and breast feed after surgery?

Personally I searched for this group thread because I wanted to know about hair loss and scarring among blacks who have had weight loss surgery. There is nothing racist, bigoted or malicious going on here. Anyone of any race is welcomed to reply.

Every few months someone comes in here complaining. Read before you whine.

Completely ignoring there are entire sub forums for Christians and all kinds of other groups.

If you don't like this thread stay out. No one is asking you to post here.

Because people never pop in the other forums asking why they have forums but some special snowflake with no critical thinking skills or tact always pops up in here asking the same dumb question.

What's even funnier? This isn't a special forum. It's a THREAD someone started.

There are forums for PCOS, religious, LBGTQ, bikers, etc., though if one would like to go harass them!

Lol right. I don't understand why his thread would cause issues.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
