Glad you're feeling better; next week is fine for me. I just started a spanish class on Thursdays, so any day but that (Donde esta el Hospital Almater?)

See if you can find a cute policeman for yourself tomorrow night, although I usually prefer firemen.

How about Tuesday? Does that sound good to you? You name the time.

Nawww, not firemen. Blech.... You know, there are only two professions where you earn a living laying on your back. ;o)

I wish I wasn't 4 hours from Portland. That would make it a lot easier to get out of here. I just saw that there is an airline offering really cheap flights into that Mesa airport you told me about.

Tuesday's good; how about 12:30?

Denise, the Mesa airport's only about 20 minutes away from Sky Harbor, so it's a great alternative.

Okay, I'll talk to you Monday.

Hey, Denise! I just checked Allegiant airlines, and they have flights from Medford for $29 each way. You have no excuse not to visit us!

My only excuse right now is I do have a job. I take off from work so often to come down there, I have to wait a little bit. Medford is 3 hours from me. I wish I didn't live in the middle of nowhere!

Denise, too bad you weren't here today! Snowbird and I went to Pappadeaux's and then we went to the AZ state fair. It was fun! I ate my way through the fair but Snowbird was MUCH better about food! We went on rides, it was fun. I really enjoyed myself. Oh... then there was the petting zoo portion, all the little tiny baby animals, they were sooo cute!

No fair! I was sick today. I was really dizzy. I went to bed and slept for a few hours. That is very unlike me. Then I got up and slimed on a Protein drink. weird. I am fine now. I just ate some cheese with no trouble.

I am glad I have a dr.'s appointment next week. They said they would

x ray my stomach. They said that would be the cheapest. Can they see a slip with an x ray of the stomach? They said to look at it under

flouro would be $400

It is unlikely they can see a slip with a flat plate xray. Fluoro... whole different story.

If you get a negative diagnosis, there is a 50/50 chance they can see a slip. There is a 100% chance they can see a slip with fluoro.

cr@p! I don't want to pay $400 for fluoro ! I really need to come down there. I am not really having problems anymore but I just would rather be safe than sorry. There is someone who posted on here recently that went for a fill with fluoro and found out she had a slip with no symptoms at all.

      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!
