MsDuran I am so happy that your hubby is home safely and that is an occasion well worth celebrating. No guilt needed there you have to live this new lifestyle I can't imagine not being able to drink champagne at my sisters wedding or having a occasionally drink on date night with my hubby. I think as long as I'm drinking responsibly(which is the rules for EVERYONE) know my limits, don't drink and drive..etc. I am will do fine. I know this forum isn't for this but...Good luck to you and your husband and I thank you for all your daily sacrifices for my security.

glad to hear you are better what was the price tag on that, if you don't mind me being nosey? I know I'm going to need one in the end

I am having my EGD(Gastroscopy) tomorrow morning what should I expect? how long does it normally take? Do I need to take the whole day off or just half a day? I have seen many have posted that they found hiatic hernias, is this common? What would be the sypstoms? Is there anything that they could find that would disqualify me for the LB? sorry so many questions just tryigng to get a grasp of what is going to happen and the worde case senerio in relation to approval for the LB thank you everyone

thanks so much Jean You answered everything now I am ready I just requested the whole day off I did get imformation about not driving but I thought is was just for operating heavy machinery or driving. Sounds like I will be alittle loopy thank again

I am glad you are doing better I have a EGD scheduled for tomorrow to check for a hernia I heard they are very common. I read that in the beginning you don't have any appetite, is this the case for you? Good Luck
