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.

First Blog

Mar 23, 2010

Well This is my first blog and I had my surgery done in December of 08.
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.
