    Any Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients ?

    Hello, I would like to ask how are you doing? I'm in the process to get sleeved and also have fibromyalgia and Rheumatoid Arthritis. I'm just wondering how the sleeve experience has been for you have the other conditions. Thanks!
  2. How are you doing? I have the same conditions I'm in the process for the surgery but my RA and fibromyalgia are killing me.
  3. How is everything going? Where you able to get the acid reflux under control?
  4. Hello Everyone! I started my journey to get the gastric sleeve. I have to do 4 months of classes. My questions is I have RA and fibro and scared of the possible complications due to my conditions has anyone had any complications and not able to take meds? I'm on a fb support group and get freaked out. I was sure this is what I wanted until I started reading some of the complains. Horrible acid reflux, nausea,vomiting, losing teeth and so on. So I'm a bit freaked out at the moment. Lol, any info from anyone with a autoimmune disease will be helpful. Thanks everyone!
  5. Hello, I started the options program this week will be my 4th class. Does anyone know I didn't even think about it, once your in the program does that mean they will cover the surgery? Or can they can still deny you after you finish the program? I'm heavy but not the 40bmi.
  6. Thanks, for the response. When did you have your surgery? So u can feel the port..hmm..lol So no sit ups i take it. Have u had a fill yet. I seen some videos on youtube they dont look to pleasant. Looks like they stick you and move it around everywhere. I was 100% sure about the surgery now Im just getting really nervous. I see the doctor Monday and I guess we will see from there. I just hope my insurance pays for it.

  7. hello,

  8. well my doctor has me on imuran and naproxen and im suppose to be taking biaxin but i dont..I also take fish oil and other vitamins.. Wow u cant take any nsaids?? Hmm, I was on mexotrexate but stopped i really do want another child so am trying to stay off those kinds of med. my doctor is considering enbrel. I feel good just on occasion my hands hurt really bad. But I've gained so much weight I just feel I need to do something. Do u feel the band? Sorry Im just really curious.
