    Hi Patti Sue,

    I'm doing OK, thank you. I've lost 30.8 lbs since surgery and 13 pre-op for a total of 43.8. You are going to love Dr Aceves and his staff...all are very attentive to you! I am still corresponding with Dr Aceves thru his office nurse, Gaby. I'm still dealing with trying to eat very slowly and chew my food till it's practically liquid but it's...

    I see you went to Dr. A, I am going in two weeks. How has it been for you? I am so excited!

    Who Plays Golf?

    wash replied to Chris S's topic in Fitness & Exercise

    I was sleeved on Jan 6th. I went to the driving range about 6 weeks later and walked 9 holes by the end of March. I walked 18 once this month but was wiped for 3 days. I find I just don't have the stamina to walk 18. I now ride 18 but am still very tired when I'm done. I usually come home and nap for 2 hrs! I'm having some slight anemia problems so that might be why I get so tired. Priscilla

    Sent you a friend request. I see you are also a Dr Aceves patient. I had my surgery with him on 1/06/2011. Priscilla

There are tons of stuff that i just cant eat but I dont mind. Pleae let me know what happens with the GI test. I sure hope they find what is wrong with the reflux. Please keep me up!

    Great news! I got a new PCP today...an internist who also has other bariatric patients that he follows and does the routine testing for. My 1st appt is next Fri for a 40 minute "establish new patient" visit, then I have an appt for a physical in the beginning of May. Thank you everyone for encouraging me to find a new PCP. Priscilla

    Hi - See my answer to "groovearmada." Priscilla

    My surgeon recommends your 1st check up 3 months after surgery. It consists of an Upper GI (check for strictures & leaks?), and the following blood worK: CBC (to check for anemia and lack of Vitamin B12) SMAC 24 Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (sugar, cholesterol, Calcium and hepatic functioning) I know my surgeon has many patients that don't bother with the Upper GI if they are not having any problems. I am having severe reflux so I think it would be best if I had it done. Priscilla

    Thank you for all your replies. I'm going to find a Gastroenterologist to follow me and I'm also going to start looking around for a new PCP. Priscilla
