Hi, I'm from Pasco County, Hudson to be exact.  I had my RNY 12/2004 at HCA bayonet Point.  I had some complications and required an emergency surgery 5 days later.  I almost died and it was a rough ride for several months but I have no regrets.  I lost 138#.  I recently regained 20# and am scared about it.  I'm looking for a friend that I can talk to about diet and rules and just someone who understands how RNY changes your life physically, emotionally, and spiritually.  My support group disbanded a few years ago and I really miss it.  Maybe we could talk sometime.

Hi! I am also a Dr. J patient. had my official RNY in 2003 and my revision 3 days before you. Like ships passing in the night! Feel free to add me! Support groups are awesome.
