Hello e1 thanks for the well wishes and prayers. I converted finally at 5 pm tonight 69 hours of fib one of my all time longest episodes. I still have to stay monitored for my med change. I hate being hospitalized but I will do what I have to do.

Hey there! Congratulations!!! I will most likely be off for six weeks. I work in health care and do a lot of lifting and tugging/pulling. My dr said if I had a desk job I could go back in about three. I'm not supposed to drive for the first two weeks. Let us know when your date is....

Pebbles, Congrats!! My surgery is on a Monday and I'm taking 2 weeks off. I will work from home the third week, except for that Wed. when I have to go to the office. I hope I have my new routine down by then.

My name is crystal and I've just started my journey . I have completed info session nutrition class first dr appointment now on sept 26 I have to meet with the nurse meet the nutritionist and social worker . I know one person who has had the gastric bypass and does not regret it one bit. I'm a mom of 4 teens and 11 year old daughter ooh yes and our one year old grandson. I'm nervous but I need this so I can live and be healthy so that I can see my grand babies and grow old with my husband. My husband says I love you the way you are no matter what. He knows due to dome health issues I need to do this journey for me.
