Three Month Follow Up with Dr. Schram (couple weeks early)
Dec 21, 2008
Well, i got back just last Tuesday night. and i am still exhausted. a long drive. luckily it was last weekend i went, and not this weekend as it's been quite a blustery weekend! and it's still coming down!anyway, Dr. Schram and Mary were thrilled with my progress. yeah, made me feel good. even though when i was weighed i was up about 6 pounds!! yes, 6! yeah, i know, it was 4 p.m. and i had my days quota of food and liquids in me ... but even with that increase i had still gone down 34% of my weight loss! not bad eh? i was pleased. even though i weighed in at more.
so ... because i was doing so well and because i wasn't having any problems Dr. Schram said there was no need for me to go back to visit him! wild eh? if i had any problems i'm to give him a call, and as long as i continue to send in my blood work every 3 months until the year is up, then i'm fine.
oh also had my blood work evaluated ... they've put me on iron supplements. one tablet in the morning and one in the evening. also suggested taking b12. my b12 was within range, but it was at the lower end. so i take a b12 compound (or something) with an eye dropper under the tongue. easy. and that's it. they said no calcium needed cause i eat a lot of dairy products.
anyway, another short and sweet post ... but life is good! i love my rny!
take care whoever reads this! i know i sometimes go back to it to refresh my memory as to what i went through ... cause at times, it all seems so unbelievable!!
