:tongue2: Well Friday 8/7/09 is the big day and I am super excited but also nervous. I have been trying to get this surgery since early February of this year with no success- I have Lupus and therefore I am a high risk candidate. I finally found a surgeon that will do the surgery and he has been closely working with my Rheumatologist and Hematologist to ensure a safe surgery. I have to take a previpac due to a small amount of bacteria in my stomach lining which can cause ulcers and Lovenox prior to the surgery and after the surgery for five days to prevent blood clots as I am at a higher risk of clotting. I have had a lot of support from my friends and family and am looking forward to a new life style and a healthier me!! I will let you know how it goes after the surgery- wish me luck!!!

Oh, it's easy. Just click on your screen name at the top next to welcome, then click on customize profile, then click on edit signature under setting and options and just paste your ticker url there and save.

Devylynne -- I'm in Alabama and wanted to let you know I'll be praying for you that you will go through the surgery without complications. My surgery was last week -- 7/31/09 -- so I'm in the post-op phase and doing quite well. Blessings to you.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
