Aug 25, 2012

11/2/10 VSG done J Stephen Scott MD FACS SSM DePaul Weight Loss Institue, St Louis, MO  Weight loss was 105 lbs in the first 20 months.
8/25/12 weight re gain 35 lbs.  DC with brains tumor and need DS to finsh the WLS journey and the cont loss and hopefully healing of DM and HTN cured with DS and staying on program.  I think the DX of a brain tumor and life stuff !!! Well threw me into eating carbs for comfort again and isolation.  Back on track with support groups and eating and exercise.  Wll see what happens for brain surgery scheduled in the spring on 2013.  I am self pay so that is why things are so spread out.  Need to refinance the house, save vacation days from work and save $$$$.  BTW my MD J Steven Scott MD FACS is now with Des Peres Hospital, My New Self program in St Louis, MO  and it is having many many many many did I say many issues with extreme growth and patient support.  But he is a  world class great surgeon.  Thankfully I only have to minally deal with the office staff since I am self pay.   Any good , bad and the ugly of post op DS?  I fear most post op diarrhea and gas.  What is the plan to avoid that so I am not avoided at work?  Is it all diet related?
