Crazy Question About Post Surgery Bm
StrangelyNormal replied to Ready4success's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yeah.... I had mine taken out in 08 and I'm still the same way. I'm like the poster child for dumping syndrome. I was told it would slow down a lot as long as I stuck with protein first.... I hope it's true -

Cost Of Vsg In Mexico
StrangelyNormal replied to AutumnPunkin's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Are u talking to me or Finding Myself BC she said Covidien is what is preferred? I say w agree to disagree or do u seriously want to piss the moderator of again? She said to let it drop. Covidien costs about 1500 just for the staples. They are preferred. period -
Nah, don't feel dumb. Then I will BC it took me a while to realize there even are stickies! Lol
-
No problem at all. I sorta keep a running list lol

In pre op forum there it's a "sticky" that has a really great list and people have added on to it. That would be a great place to start

Drain Vs No Drain?
StrangelyNormal replied to lynnz's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I'm probably wrong but I thought that was how one of the leak tests were done too. U drink the blue dye stuff and if it comes out in the drain there is a leak. One is done while Ur under, one is with the dye and one is with the barium/x ray. I'm cool with having one, especially if it's for that reason -
