Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers.

The neurologist spent 1 hr and 45 minutes with me. He has order and MRI with and without contrast of the Brain and the Cervical spine. I go for these Wed afternoon. I will not get the results until I am back unless I can get them from my primary care. Anyway he told me that the first thing that comes to mind MS (Multiple Scerlosis) however he said if I had that then it should have shown up in an MRI I had a few years back.

I am just trying to get all this done and get ready for my trip I will be leaving in 30 hours YEAH!!!!!

Again Thank you guys so much and God Bless!

Amelia, I would ask if you can call and check in while you are on vacation. Maybe give the office permission to give results to a family member as soon as they are available. I'm sending positive thoughts your way. Please make sure you have access to medical attention if needed while you are gone. We are here if you need to talk or need anything. Don't hesitate to ask. ~Mandy

Hanging in there, Mandi. Lost 31 lbs. so far.

I had one fill and am getting another in 2 weeks. Still no restriction, but I'll get there!

HI all, I was up until 3 am this morning researching LB I've registered here and at OH. I've also posted an intro post on the intro page. I'm seriously considering the surgery, still researching and I'm hoping to attend a seminar this Saturday. I think I'd like to check Day One Health. I'd love to join your group. Several of you live near me. I'm in Plainfield.
