Changing my Pcm
Jan 26, 2010
5 months after seeing my PCM and she isn't help me what so ever, I am going to see a new doctor today, and hope this will be better for me, maybe someone will listen and get me this referal, keep gaining weight and still vomiting, back aches so badly, this weight is killing me.
Went to PCM
Aug 11, 2009
August 11, 2009 Got her all the information I had. She will fax everything and now I wait for the referal.
I am not giving up just yet.

App. with Dr. Rawlins
Jun 17, 2008
July 8, 2008 He says I might have a stricture and it will come and go and has been doing this all along and to see about getting a dialation done. He will not be doing a revision for me.
August 6, 2009 Dr. Rawlins was a total dissapointment for me, I really think I should get this revision, now that it has been a year since I saw him last, I will see if I can talk to one of the other surgeons in that office. I didn't think there was any hope for me, until I talked to Theresa @ the WLS center.
TSH
May 25, 2008
May 25, 2008 Got labwork done last week at my rheumatologists clinic and she did my TSH and the result is .19 the range is .35 to 5.6. I guess this indicates an overactive thyroid when I have always had a underactive thyroid. My PCM is changing my dose to 125 mcg and before that I is was taking 137 mcg and 150 mcg before that.
I am not having shakes or feel hyper, I am in fact feeling very rundown, tired, cold and constipated.
I am taking in more protein and walking to see if I can get some weight off and improve my health.
May 13th I had more bloodwork done, found out my TSH is still low on the 16th, waiting for a new prescription.
WLS Informational
May 13, 2008
May 13, 2008 Went into Spokane to the meeting, met Carol and Dr Rawlins. Very good info. Can't wait for my consult. Wish I had the RNY to begin with, hoping he can help me.
May 21, 2008 Got a call from Carol today, I have an appointment on June 16th at 1:30. Update I guess the app. is going to be at 9:15 am. Also got the packet to fill out.
EGD Followup
Apr 08, 2008
April 8, 2008 Went to see Dr. Craig and all is well, saw the pictures and he printed out 2 for me, it all looks normal and he thinks I probably shouldn't try to get WLS, I do have to get bloodwork for my liver though and then followup after that.
May 19, 2008 Bloodwork came out normal. Will followup in about 4 months, he would like to see me lose weight. Easier to say than do. I am trying.
Dentist
Apr 08, 2008
April 3rd Went to the dentist today and I have to get some teeth pulled and some filled, but I will be able to get partial dentures and I am happy about that. It will be nice to be able to chew food without aches and pain and to be able to smile with good teeth not yucky teeth.
April 7th I had a tooth break over the weekend and had it pulled today and it was very painful.
April 9th I had my teeth cleaned today and he was very careful since I just had that tooth pulled.
April 12th Had 2 teeth filled.
