Which FB group?

There is a 'secret' facebook group for patients of Dr. Fitzer. You get an invite once you have attended one of his monthly support groups.

There are 2 secret FB groups for Dr. Fitzer's patients. I can invite you to both if you PM me your e-mail address. Debbie (support group leader) will add you, even if you haven't been to a group yet.

Haha indeed!!! Thanks

Congratulations! How are you feeling?

A little sore...still pretty gassy but a lot better than yesterday. Nervous now about water intake and either not getting enough or popping my pouch. I’m sure I’ll be fine....I’m a worrier. Lol

You'll be fine. I'm a worrier too. Just listen to your body. You'll be straight. Congrats again.

Can I be added to the groups too? Hoping to make it to a meeting eventually.

Feeling better now?

Went to see Suzanne yesterday, and she told me it would be my last appointment with her because she's moving and leaving the practice. Her replacement Jessica was shadowing her.
