Hi ! I went to my Dr's office today and had the HPylori test and the MBR Test (Metabolic Rate).  Two down and a couple more to go. Not so bad. I was able to meet two other women who had the RNY with Dr E and Dr Chan.  They were full of advice and just thrilled with the care and results!  For the Hypylori test I had to swallow this clear (unsuspecting solution) sweet yet bitter concentrated lemon solution.  Made me pucker.  Thank goodness I was a drinking queen in college   Then I had to wait 15 min and breathe in these bags, interesting. For the MBR Test I had to breathe through a tube for 10 min attached to a machine, I left with out getting the print out.  But if what I read on the machine is accurate, my metabolism is super low and slow... explains a bunch! Im waiting for the office to open back u pafter lunch to call and find out what it actually was.  The machine said something around 1547 or 1555, so I'll keep you posted if that was the true rate. I had a great call with my nutritionist last night so feeling focused and grounded again. Good days on the WLS Journey Train... I give it
