Biotin affects lab results??
Lynda486 replied to 2Bsmaller18's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I will be following this post. I have been taking it for awhile now -
Good Morning! I am having a revision to bypass in Sept. I still have reflux and can't wait to be off medication for it. I am hoping it will be gone after surgery. By the way, way back when I had it done no one told me the sleeve would cause acid reflux either! Good luck!!

I just got an order in yesterday. Only I got the caramel flavor. Next time I will get the fruity version! -
Sounds like acid reflux. I have suffered for years after I was sleeved in 1998. Make sure to talk to your DR about what can done. If you can, prop yourself up at night, don't eat 2 hours before bed, avoid foods that can cause acid such as; tomatoes, coffee, citrus and spicy foods!

I am also looking forward to being able to get into the car without assisting my left leg, I usually have to lift it -

I completely agree with GreenTealael, I have had to call my surgeons office several times. Every time I do, things are suddenly farther along. Sometimes I feel like a pest, but I am betting if I didn't call them I might not even get my surgery this year. -

Looks like there are quiet a few September surgeries. Mine is Sept. 16th! Good luck everyone! -
I am both nervous and excited! Like you I am using this time to educate myself, find shakes that I like and anything else I can think of. And of course I have to clean the house top to bottom before surgery

How long after EGD till surgery date?
Lynda486 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had my EGD on July 9th and still have not heard back from the surgeon, or the office. I do know the results of the EGD and he plans on fixing that, but I not sure if he means a Gastric Bypass or just to repair the fistula he found. How long should I wait to call into the office? Lynda -

How long after EGD till surgery date?

I got my surgery date Friday September 16th! -
I got word yesterday that my surgery date will be September 16th. It seems like a long time, but it will give me time to prepare. What did everyone do to help pass the time before surgery? I worry that they are not having me meet with a nutritionist even and I really want to get this right!
