Looking for new dr
Feb 05, 2023
I'm 14 years post op and I've reached goal but I'm my doctors only gastric bypass patient and have been since surgery. I have lots of problems and he don't take them all that serious. I just had another EMG done of my arms and still no answers. I go for an upper extremity doppler tomorrow to see if there's blood clots in my arms but I think that's unlikely being I've had pain and cold for over a year.
I have pain and cold in my arms and hands. More so on the right. I had an ilious in August that was on the left but the pain was on the right. My right eye has been twitching for months. I drop stuff randomly out of my right hand. I bruise really easily on my right. I get random zings in my neck on my right side. My RIGHT SIDE IS STARTING TO FREAK ME OUT. And today while I had my hair up in a ponytail my husband noticed I'm starting to lose my hair behind my right ear. Wth!
It's time for a new dr.
I'm in lower Michigan close to Detroit metro Airport. I already drive 30 min to my Dr and he don't help. I need someone who will listen and hear me. Has anyone else in here experienced anything like this before?
Back on Track!
Aug 13, 2010
I am finally back on track. I am almost 7 weeks post pardom and the baby is doing so much better. We had a scare a week or so ago and ended up in the NICU and we didn't really like that to much but we are great. He is great! Hubby and I are doing so much better also. I am down to my lowest weight since junior high school. I am 206lbs as of this morning and I remember in 7th grade my sister making a bad joke when I weighed in at 204. She made a joke like we were golfing and she was teeing off and she said two oh and yelled FOUR and put her hand to her forhead and looked into the distance. I will remember that for the rest of my life because that is the one and only fat joke my sister made of me.
I am now a proud mommy to 3 boys. Matthew is three and a half, Andrew is two and Joshua is going to be 7 weeks on Monday. My house is over run by boys. I watch my nephew Alex sometimes to (he is almost 3) my sister don't know how I do it. Its just life and they are just boys.
I am just glad that I am alive, that my boys are all healthy and that my relationship with my husband is on the mend.
I will hopefully become more active on this site and meet some of you awesome people and make some great friends.

I was 324lbs and got down to 207lbs and found out we were expecting baby number 3. I am now 219 and feel like crap because I have gained 12 lbs. Before 12 lbs didn't phase me because I was so big you couldn't even tell.
I have had some issues as of late. I get really dizzy. NOT just room spin type dizzy but the type of dizzy that when your sitting in a chair you almost just fall out and there is no reason for it.
I just had another follow up with my surgon today and it went great.
Sex drive is GONE and has been for over 3 years so pray for hubby but he is doing great with it all. I still have a hard time understanding that I went from a 4x 30/32 clothes to a Large. Its just CRAZY! I still feel like the little fat girl but I feel faster now lol.
