Just wondering if anyone has Rhumatoid Arthritis, and if the medications prescribed for that are bad for RNYers like the Advil type pain relievers.

From what I remember, as long as it doesn't cause stomach ulcers, you should be fine.  But double check with your surgeon to be sure.  I only pay attention to the medications I need so I'm certainly no expert on that subject.

Heya Kristy!

Surgery on Thursday?  Are you totally pshyched?  Would that mean the dreaded bowel prep tomorrow?  Haven't talked to you in a while and wondering how you are doing.  Give me a call!

Hey YOU!

So doesn't it just figure that two days before surgery I'm psyching myself all up again? Ugh!  I'm emailing you.

On a positive note, isn't she just the cutest thing ever?  She'll be 1 on the 19th. I've got to remind myself, she is so much of the reason I HAVE to have surgery.

OH I love the picture of your daugther!! She is just to cute. Oh I thin****ep saying that. I was told that we are to try to stay away from Advil I remember at a week out I had a horrible headache and Donna told me that if I need to take advil it would be okay. So I think perhaps we just need to limit the amount. But, I would talk that over with Donna at the clinic or your Surgeon.
God Bless, Angela
