Labs are back ... PatchMD seems to be working



Recommended Posts

I promised to post and let the other PatchMD Vitamin Patch users know how my labs came out. They are right on themoney other than my Vitamin D being a little low. I see the Endocronologist on Friday and I'm sure she will advise me on what additional supplements I need to add to my daily routine. I am so glad they are getting the job done !!!

I purchased the Multivitamin patch last week and put on my first one this morning. So I am going to put them to the test.

Thanks for your update.

I'll stay away from cheap jokes like, "No memory loss that I remember..."

Good to know! I've been using the patch on most days for a month now. I go for my labs in mid November. It's so much easier to put on the sticker than chew up those awful Vitamins.

I've had a lot of hair loss, but no memory loss. Well, I don't attribute my poor memory to the surgery. I attribute it to 3 kids, full time job, and being over 30. :)

I havent heard of the Patches. Where do you get them and how much do they cost? Does insurance cover them? Do you need a prescription? Is it just for the Multivitamin?

PATCHMD.com will explain it all. I also recommend doing your own research. For me, they are super convenient and one less thing I have to worry about.

I've ordered some to test, because I'm having the "all my chewable multis make me gag" experience this month.

      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!
