I have had my Mirena IUD since August 2011 and I have not gotten pregnant. I got Mirena because not only does it place a foreign object in your uterus to make your body reject any developing fetus, it also gives off a small amount of hormone to prevent it from occurring. Some IUD's do not give off hormones and are just a foreign object intrauterine.

HELP...HAVING FOOD CRAVINGS...2ND DAY OF DIET BEFORE SURGERY.
DrmBig4Evr replied to dat_sweetmami's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Honestly, I think a liquid diet would have been easier, more black and white..I've had issues with severe headaches on my preop and cravings are definitely a mind game... -
Yes, very common after pain meds is constipation...if it is bright red, usually nothing to worry about, need a stool softener, but obviously I'm not a doc! If its a dark red, that could mean internal and call your doc right away.

Wicked nightmares after surgery
DrmBig4Evr replied to amytug's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes its the drugs, it will get better... -
lol, thanks Fyre Storm.! I personally didn't get one because I wanted one that looked like jewelry, but if it were an emergency they wouldn't be looking closely at my jewelry to check for the tag unless its obvious...don't believe they would see it.

I was waiting for the stress eating remark! Very eventful day! Good luck! -
A charge for hernia repair surgery ?!what?!
DrmBig4Evr replied to Lisa'slosinit's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I would be upset too, it may or may not have been done. It could have been a billing error or an inflation of billing. My consent forms said possible hernia repair and possible liver biopsy. Its an insurance game in my opinion, but I would say something to your surgeon if you want to know. -
I agree, put it down, you will irritate your stomach...step away from the kitchen!
-
Some people have them, I've debated, but probably not going to.

Fertility Treatments vs. VSG surgery
DrmBig4Evr replied to misslady's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Why can't you try both? Start the medicine now, gain weight, if you don't conceive then do this...if you do conceive do this after you have your baby. -
Five weeks out and frustrated
DrmBig4Evr replied to Jason Houston's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Also, my post op instruction state that if this happens to go back to liquids again and allow your stomach to calm down again and in a week or two try again. -
Advil definitely not, I believe 7 days prior TALK TO DOC to find out. Also, ask if you can have Tylenol, I think you can. I've been having headaches and back pains, but I'm just dealing with it. I don't want to risk being refused by the Anesthesiologist.
-
I've definitely seen stories of both. Its an adjustment for the both of you. If there is a problem after surgery, couples therapy is always an option! Good luck, I'm sure it will get better!

Pain meds throw me into a crazy personality and at first I wasn't aware... -
