Sorry about the rant but......why are staff in doctors offices always look so stressed and angry? I don't get it. I called about a bill and the lady freaked. It's not like I was calling her for fun...I needed to ask a legit question....RELAX!!

Ugh that sucks. Is the staff always like that, or was it maybe just a bad day?

I guess I'm blessed because my doctor and his staff are amazing. They're always very warm and have been incredibly supportive of me during this journey. I don't think I'd have done nearly as well if they weren't so great.

No it was just this lady...terrible attitude. Although I work in the medical field and deal with others like that all the time. Lol

Heck I'd say something if she's still snarky next time you talk to her. Kill her with kindness: "I'm sorry you're having such a bad day, hopefully next time we speak you won't be so cranky" ;)

I manage a medical practice and I would want to know if any of our patients felt like they weren't being treated properly by the staff!

I'm not sure if this woman particularly works in the office because she just takes care of billing for this one nutritionist. It seemed like she more works for the hospital....I'm not going to lose any sleep....everyone is entitled to a crappy day once in a while. Lol

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
