Hello Gabriella,

I am thinking about VSG with dr. garneau (self pay). Can you tell me about your experience with him and how much you lost?

Thanks,


Laurence

 since September 2009.  wait time with Dr. Atlas in montreal is 3 years.  having VSG, no date yet.

Congrats on your loss. Keep up the great job. I understand plateaus happen and one is not supposed to too worried about them from what I've read so far. My surgeon wants a filter put in because I'm on coumadin. He consulted with my hematologist and she didn't think one was necessary. I received a letter from RVH on Thursday to see another hematologist at the end of June. I hope the two hema's talk to each other and that this doesn't delay my surgery.

 I had a by-pass on Monday feb 27th and since then I lost 28 pounds or 13 kilos, I did hit a plateau for 2 weeks but i suddenly lost anoter 2 pounds. I 've been on waiting list since 2006 and they finally called me for a meeting on Dec 15th and then it went very fast. My surgery went well 2 days in hospital and the third I was home, its does hurt for at least 7 to 10 days but then it goes slowly away, 
I really hope for you that they call you verry soon, keep on calling mary she ' ll know you are interet it . keep me posted Good Luck 

thank you. that's what I'll do.
