Change of Life OT

Hi Shamrock, we're just days apart; it's April 5 for me. You have a great attitude -- turning a negative thing (gyn stuff) into a positive one (another argument for having the insurance company pay for your band). Good luck with the med stuff next Monday.

Vera, is the fibroid causing you any other problems? Or is it just that you can't get the device? I have a huge fibroid, but I'm told they tend to shrink after menopause. Mine has not really caused me any problems.

Vera, there are new and innovative ways of dealing with fibroid removal now. A hysterectomy is no longer necessary. And in certain cases, the tummy doesn't need an incision. Do your research, you just might be pleased with what you find out. My best to you!!!

I actually went out and got a pregnancy test. I mean, I NEVER miss a period, and here I am, 3 months without one. Turns out I'm not pregnant, just old. :)

Good Luck Shamrock hope everything works out.

My mother inlaw has so many problems going through the change well she is still going thru the change. It has been over a few yrs when she has her menses she actually has to wear a baby diaper. I will have to read up on the Pre cause I thought it was something that just happened. My mom takes some kind of pill that she says they are pulling off the shelves??? Well another thing to check into cause if it's Patches I will have them all over my body to never feel the way I did that day. Good thing I had clothes on cause when I was running for the door I did not even worry I was in a robe let alone with out anything on.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
