I' date=' too, had fertility issues. I have PCOS and was told I would have difficulty getting pregnant. I got pregnant my first month of attempting, and my daughter was perfect in spite of diabetes and and overall high risk pregnancy. I was lucky enough to have a healthy baby, and could not get pregnant again.

As heartbreaking as your miscarriages are, your good news is you CAN get pregnant. I hope you are able to carry to term once this is done for you.

I was not well controlled and in my last four weeks post op, I'm using about half the insulin than I was before. It's not the easy road, but worth it.[/quote']

No it certainly isn't the easy road. But the way I look at it anything is worth kids filling the house. I am sorry for the troubles you went thru. Hopefully this will be the answer for us all. With hard work and determination of course.

Nothing to be sorry about. My family doesn't look like what I dreamed. Whose does? I was incredibly blessed with this gregarious, beautiful girl. She healthy, smart, and kind. I guess I was meant to spend all my resources on her.

I hope this surgery helps you fulfill those dreams. I know how important that is to a person.

I haven't been revised to RNY yet. I was on avanderyl once,and metformin 1000 twice daily for 15 years. After banding, I came off avanderyl and one of my B/P meds. I never came off the metformin and in the past 5 months, my sugars have been going up and out of control. I am really and truly hoping to get off all medicines.

      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.

        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.

      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!
