Wow, haven't been on here since last July! Thought maybe an update might be in order. I am doing very well from all standpoints and hopefully have conquered all my DS associated issues and finally have a handle on this thing at 4 1/2 years out! Still on Actigall, which seems to keep all my liver/bile duct issues at bay and my liver enzymes were normal last fall for the first time in a couple of years. I quit coming on here because I was tired of obsessing about everything associated with WLS and just wanted to move on to a normal life, which I have done. My weight has stabilized at 150 to 155 lbs which puts me right in the middle of normal BMI. Take my vitamins quite religiously with only a few missed doses here and there. Bone density has been a problem, but had a Reclast infusion in January and will do this yearly which I hope will help, as calcium absorption is such a problem for us. Over consumption of it doesn't necessarily help calcium levels and bone density, it just gets secreted out the kidneys and causes stones. Been there, done that and don't care to repeat it! Have not been ill since last July when I had a nasty campylobacter intestinal infection that came from Lord knows where. No food issues as long as I stay away from much of anything with flour in it. I can eat flour, but get horrible gas which I hate dealing with , so try to behave myself!
