Hi again

I am just curious about your experience with Dr Elahi. What did you have done and did you pay extra?

Thanks so much

Paula

I found a doctor who is assisting me with getting started. I submitted my doctor's referral to him to get the OHIP covered panniculectomy

Yes many of them!

Hey!

Total newbie here - I don't use Facebook so I'm apparently missing out on what's happening in those groups..

I am post op 3 weeks and down 18.6lbs. I am still on full liquid diet for another week or so.. The things I have read on this forum have been so helpful! Any tips for continued success as I move into the soft/regular phase?

thanks!

I noticed that my surgery date is 2009, not 2011. I am not great with dates, never have been.

I had stomach ulcers that ruptured my pouch. I have to take a pill, twice a day for the rest of my life to reduce the acid in my pouch.

Before I had the rupture, I felt constantly sick to my stomach, pain, couldn't eat, and kept telling doctors about it. Not one listened. They still don't.

I go on ....with covid being here, it has gotten worse. Can't find my doctor anywhere. I guess people stopped needing medical attention.

Sorry for downer post, but there hasn't been any support from anywhere. That is why I posted. There are probably hundreds more like me, that need it also.
