Hi to all those who said they would be in for a Perth Bandsters Get Together. Sorry I didn't contact you all when I was home from site last time, but time just kinda got away from me...

I'm hoping this poll will help us to reach a decision on how, when and where our little soiree will occur... Pick as many options as you are happy to do (ie all available dates, all acceptable options). The one(s) with the most votes wins.

Hey. I have been away for a while because my son has been sick and has been in PMH since last Saturday :-( He got septic arthritis in his hip. Apparantly he got it because he had tonsilitis and the bacteria travelled from his tonsils to his hip. He has surgery to clean and remove the puss......He also has to wear a brace for 3 weeks to prevent his hip from dislocating...

Anyhoo, to cut a long story short, I probably won't be able to attend. We have been told to keep him at home as his immune system is low due to the antibiotics, my husband is away so I won't be able to get out.....maybe not till the end of Feb.

What a rough week, jeez I am drained

Wow that IS a rough week! Sorry to hear that, Cherry, and my best wishes for your son's speedy recovery!! Hang in there, mate, and don't worry, I'm sure we'll have more than one get together, so you can come join us at a later date...

Fanny and Cherry Blue

Next time Fanny is back in Perth how about we meet up then? Maybe some more Perth people might see this thread between now and then and might like to meet too - if not, I'm still happy to meet up with you guys, even if it's just for a coffee at my place or something.

Amy, that sounds great. My son is on antibiotics for 4 weeks. Its been pretty tuff here and could do with a break.... Its been so hard to lose weight while staying at PMH. I will be able to get my mother in law to babysit, if given enought notice, so a coffee sounds great :-)

Greetings All: Do you know of a lady who has a screen name of Katydid? Her real name is Helene. She lives in Western Australia and has had some horrible complications with her band. I think she said her new surgeon is Dr. Padovan or something like that. His office is in Waikiki. Katy visits a board on here very frequently that is a 50's board. She had surgery on Monday morning and we are all on pins and needles wanting to know if she is ok and how the surgery went. If anyone can help me find the Dr. or the hospital she might be in I'd like to contact the hospital to see if she is ok.

Thank you from all her friends,

Susan Powell, Baltimore, MD USA

      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!
