heart problems and vsg



Recommended Posts

I just had my echo today for part of my clearance.. I'm just so scared that they are going to find something wrong and was just wondering if they did, find maybe a murmur. Does anyone here have heart murmurs or problems and was vsg surgery still performed

I have had Atrial Fibrillation. I got a letter of release for surgery from my Cardiac Doc, and then everything was ok. No problems.

I have had a heart attack, heart failure, and atrial fibrilation (controlled). I have been stable awhile and my cardiologist was a proponent for my surgery. As I have said before, I waited too long for surgery and I damaged myself pretty severely but due to VSG, I have hope that I can have meaninful weight loss and better health.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
