lo2us 1 Posted October 5, 2007 I'm still alive. WOrking on Homecoming this week and next. Then I can relax for the rest of the year! Gus turned 3 on Wednesday...big party at Chucky cheese on Saturday! I'm scheduled for a fill on the 8th and I'm planning on being at the meeting that evening too. I don't think I will have a fill though. I'm never hungry and can only eat a little still, but I'm no longer sick to my stomach. I've only gone about 2 weeks without being sick and I'm not ready to give up my comfort yet. If I can lose 1 lb by Monday, I will have lost 10 on this fill. If I deny a fill, and need one in say about 2 weeks, will they let me get one or do I have to wait? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sugarbear 2 Posted October 6, 2007 LO2us, glad to hear from you! I have never denied a fill, but I think you may have to wait. Not real sure but I was thinking someone said that on here. Doesn't sound like you need one anyway. Dr, H said if you are sick and or can't eat enough, you are too tight. He told me that last visit. He said if that doesn't ease in a few days, call them. I was a little surprised at that. Thought you had to wait longer. Anyway that never applies to me. Sometimes I wonder if I have a leak, like Susan did. I think it was Susan. I am 7 months out now. I am so glad you are doing so well! It feels wonderful, huh? I am looking forward to seeing you Mon. HAPPY BIRTHDAY GUS!!!!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lisa G. 4 Posted October 6, 2007 Hey everyone. How's everyone this morning? Shannon, Dr. H told me that if we didn't get a fill, we would have to wait until the next scheduled visit to get a fill. Hope everyone has a good weekend. Talk to yall later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sugarbear 2 Posted October 7, 2007 Got an email from Mrs. Betty. YES, the meeting is on for Mon. (tomorrow night.) 7:00 p.m. I don't know why it didn't get posted on noscales. Guess Dr. H is super busy. Hope everyone had a great weekend. We went to Nashville, AR to hear Cheryl Wright, think that was her name. Anyway we really enjoyed it and the weather was beautiful. I haven't been getting out much these days, so I enjoyed it more than usual. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
