Do you mind sharing if your issues were related to the surgery?

How soon after the surgery were you feeling good enough to exercise? You've had amazing results!

Anyone post op with gastric bypass that takes thyroid medication? If so, any concerns or problems with absorption ?

I'm going from lap band to bypass surgery. Does anyone have pain on their right side from where their port was located. Just curious. I'm waiting on insurance approval for an early June surgery date.

SparkleCat, who is your surgeon? I have Dr.Snyder. I'm going from lapband to bypass. I hope to go in early June.

I have Celiac. Going from band to Roux n y

Hi SparkleCat, where in Denver?

Hello, I'm 42 and had the lap band surgery back in Jan. of 2005. Recently had issues with reflux and not being able to eat. I had the fill removed from the band. Gained lots of weight. I have celiac, thyroid issues and I'm worried about of all things with gastric bypass surgery is the hair loss. I have beautiful thick hair. I'm in the approval process right now. Wanting to know what anyone knows about hair loss and if there is anything to prevent this from happening. Anything prior to surgery I can stock up on Biotin in my system. Just thought I'd ask this crazy question. Also, want to know how soon a person can drive/go to work after this surgery. I will have the lap band removed and the gastric bypass done in one surgery.

I'm 42 with Celiac. Had Lap Band in 2005. Had acid reflux and couldn't eat with the band. Had Fluid removed 2 years ago. Just wanting to know if anyone has celiac, solution to not loosing chunks of hair, how soon you can go back to a desk job, drive to work etc. I"m in the approval process right now. Hope to know a date soon.
