Omg I went today to have Mirena put in. Couldn't do it. It hurt so bad. I was in tears. I almost passed out. He couldn't see anything even with the HUMONGOUS speculum.

He barely got the clamp on my cervix and I jumped. He measured my uterus and I almost died. Then he tied to put it in and couldn't see. He said he go it almost in but I jerked and said there was no way he could get it in and open without me screaming in pain. He said some people he has to put to sleep.

I said "not thank you." I'm going back on Seasonale. Lol.

For those of you craving Reese's Peanut Butter cups. Someone mentioned on a thread that they make Protein Drinks with chocolate Protein Powder and a spoon of peanut butter blended in. Then, someone said you can get peanut butter powder. Most of the fat has been removed. You can put some of that in with chocolate Protein powder and have a splendid drink. I found it at my local supermarket. They even had several brands to try. It even has Iike 4 or 5 grams of protein. And they have one that is peanut butter and chocolate. You can also mix with Water and make a sort of paste with it if you think whole drink sounds yucky. Figured it's worth a try.

Yep. Mirena hurt but only briefly. If you can stand it, it is worth it.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
