OK I got the stuff and am on day 2 of trying it. I don't know what to say it is just real different from the liquid stuff. I love that I do not have the shine anymore but as far as covering my spot on the cheek and the redness around my nose base area, well they are still visiable.. I need practice more with it. I will finish the week out but I do like it cause it is so lite. Oh yeah went to the dermatoligist appt and no my spot on the cheek is not cancer it is an age spot. Anyway she says that my body must be doing the change thing. I think it is and she wrote me a thing for some cream to try to lighten it. Will try that and see what happens.

Lisa, Checking to see how you are doing??? I know it's hard but stay on liquids and if you need somthing like previcide they come in Solutabs so you would not have to drink a Coke to help it go down.. Sending you good ((((((((((vibes))))))))))))

Still the same as last week. Humm

You are being way to hard on yourself. You are not doing bad at all - One thing that says so is what you are ordering. It will all come in good time.. Take care

Poor Katie and Baby . She better get ready cause he is going to dictate every waking and sleeping moment. -
This past year I started to get those cramps from Hell as well. I get a black cup of coffee and add a little pepper and take sips till I feel it warm my innards. Usually works within a few min for me.

On no Anne - I bet that was a bear to clean up. This is powder and you mix and put on with brush. Right Now I found a foundation from Loreal that I finally like but I always get the shiny glow from any foundation that I hate having to powder myself. Plus I still see the redness -- oh well getting pretty vain in my old age:)

Kathy you are very flattering. My skin to tell you the truth is aweful. I have a pigmentaion on my left check bone area that is causing my so much grief. Try and picture the lighting bolt on Harry Potters forehead running diagnal from my outer eye area not to mention the redness I get on by my nose. I hate it thus trying to find something to conceal it all.. From the Pic I just saw of you ladies you have flawless skin and is looking mighty beautiful. Lisa - My friend swears by the stuff and she told me about it. I saw a infamerical on one of the channels about some stuff Liza Gibbons promotes but it was more expensive. I am going to try this test size and see if I like it. It comes with foundation and concealer and bronzer and some other gleen and sheen stuff. Any way I also have an appt on Monday with the Dermatoligist to rule out skin Cancer on my bolt look.. Just call me Ms. Frakenstien Vines tell me your secret - Your eyebrows are so formed do you free hand or use those things in the store to form them??
-
My prayeres are with you.. Please take care and I would ask those questions that Lisa posted.. Oh yeah one of the girls that works here had the Hemvac on her for a good 4 months with no problems and did her own packing. Gallbladder gone wrong surgery.. That is a whole other story

Let me say that I am alright so far. This morning after being up for an hour I started to get a pain in my chest just like the Gall Bladder attack that I had back in May.( Gallbladder removed) Anyway after dealing with it for an hour and it ingulfing all my upper chest and dropping off my kids, my mom took me to the ER. After chest Xrays and blood work they can find nothing. Needless to say I am die hard workaholic and came in. What they think is happening is that even though you get your gallbladder out you can still develope stones or sludge. Does anyone still have problems like this after your gallbladder was removed??? They gave me several things to calm my tummy down in case it was reflux which I did not eat or drink anything this morning before it started. I tell you, what a way to start my day.. One thing I did do that I don't always do is a longer hug to my kids and way more kisses..

Thank you Lisa, Donali I go in on Thursday for a Barium Swallow (rule out slip or prolapse) and an H-pylori test. If everything looks fine then they said they will scheadule a vist with scope Dr. to rule out ulcer or worse Erosion while they are in there. I have searched on Gallbladder problems after removal and did see there are quite alot of them. If they pain had been any other place than the Gallbladder site I would be extremly worried, not that I am not I just do not wish to have this happen again. When they did the ultrasound they actually did see a stone in there. I will talk with my Band doc again about the possiblity of Erosion and see what we are going to do.. Thanks Again

Thank You all - I am hanging in there and feel tired after that 4 hr stay in the Emrg room. I guess I will have to deal with it if it happens again. (crossing my fingers it does not) Kelly they did an EKG and it was normal to them even though it felt like my heart was going to pop out of my chest. Lori & Diane - I feel better knowing that it can happen but I really did not expect it to happen to me. Thank you all for your prayers:)

You all look Beatiful.

You know Jack the thought crossed my mind that maybe I was out of whack. But then again I thought just could not be. I am going to call the Chiro tomorrow. All that goes through my mind is how much more am I going to pay. ReneBean - LOL you know that is exactly what I am going to do. The visual is all they need..

OK I am finally gotten to the point that I am sick and tired of this reflux. It is not like anything that anyone discribes - it has a mind of it's own. I was at 1.00 cc's as of this morning but am at 0 now. I eat and drink fine all day long not one iota of reflux but the minute I am in a deep sleep and around 2am I can literally feel my stomach lurch and up comes that foul liquid into my throat. I run to the bathroom spit or vomit it up and then have to use my inhaler cause my lungs are having trouble with the air intake. I have seen my band doc who says it cannot be band related might be run off from the sinus. I have seen the ENT Doc who says it cannot be sinus drainage and has to be band related. I have been on Nexium for the past month and 3 to 4 nights per week this is going on. I have had it. On Thursday I go for a Barium Swallow to rule out slip or prolapse. Also will have another H-Pylori test right before. I just do not know what else to do. I have gotten to the point I am trying to sleep upright but the minute I let my guard down here comes the crap up my throat. It has no color it is clear and it actually looks like snot to tell you all the truth. Never ever any food particles in there. Now I am on previcid again. I hope that my band is ok But we will see. Sorry that I have not been around much but very busy here at work and home. Sorry so long

Just want to add - No child is bad - They just make Bad choices. My first born has been Hell on wheels and I understand you every stept of the way. His Kindergarden teacher had us jump through the hoops with parenting classes ADD classes - the whole nine yards. We finally figured a system that works for us but it deals with a whole new school a good stern teacher and being on the same page as my husband. We are not there yet where I would like to be but slowley with time..

Mita replied to thechatrooper's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I have heard of a Dr. Horgan but not really sure where in your area he is. One of the girls from Spotlight switched to him. -
Estela, Did your care provider ever let you know previously that he had an issue with the above or is she just not wanting to deal with him?? I know children are different at home vs when they are at Day Care. I would see how he acts with the teacher first before stressing the appt's and money with the child Psy. I am in the same boat with my older son 7 1/2 going on 20 but he has a strict teacher this year and he knows when to not cross the line with her. Give it a couple weeks and follow up with her twice a week on how things are going. Good Luck
