Having a gastric bypass in 2 weeks
Wondering if anyone on here has had this? The reason I ask is it is difficult discussing with some others I met at the pre op assessment none of whom have fibromyalgia and the chronic fatigue and pain. I am told how important it is to exercise afterwards ... and there was a guy visiting the unit who

Stomach pain
Hello. My name is Felisha and I have had gastric bypass on November 30th. I am now lactose intolerant so I don't mess with dairy. Can someone please tell me why I get stomach cramps all the time? It hurts like contractions and it gets hard to breath. I am not sure how many grams of sugar I am allowed

9 years since they first found the M2 antibodies, 16 years since my alk phos started being elevated. My story.
I see so many questions on here about labs and what do they mean. I remember being so afraid when they first started looking at PBC in me. It all started with a new patient physical back in 2002. My alk phos test results came back elevated, only issue in the whole kebang, my new PCP(primary care physician

What’s happening?
I’ve been experiencing palpitations, dizziness and chronic fatigue for quite some time. I was previously diagnosed with B12 deficiency and so was given regular injections for over a year. In June 2017, I underwent a gastric bypass to help me achieve permanent weight loss and all is going well apart

It’s never easy to face infertility, but it may be particularly difficult when you live in the city, where it seems every other woman is pregnant, and children burst out of houses up and down the block. It’s overwhelming and heartbreaking, because you see all these other families and think you’ll never

Bariatric surgery refugee here...
Hello. After a lifetime of being overweight (dating from being placed on diets by my mum as a preschooler), I finally asked my GP if she would refer me for bariatric surgery. I'm in my 50s and, at the time of my first appointment, weighed 27 and a half stone. Although I was fortunate in that I didn't

Has anyone here with liver PBC and additional liver diseases had a gastric bypass?
Hi all, I am looking for other people with PBC that have also had gastric bypass surgery. I am trying to find out what additional information we need to know. What questions we should be asking our doctors and basically about increased mal-absorptive issues to expect as our PBC progresses to stage

Hi I'm new to this group
I had to have an emergency gallbladder removal last September. At that time the surgeon did not like the looks of my liver and had done a biopsy. I already knew I had fatty liver and the biopsy proved correct. I have since then had gastric bypass surgery to help me lose weight and hopefully help with

Therapist who needs a therapist
I had gastric bypass surgery a few months ago. I had come off my depression medications previous to that. Since then my anxiety has heightened. I'm a therapist who is going to be licensed soon. I hate the position I am in currently. I have gone on many job interviews and every single one has wanted to

Iron infusion
Why did they decide to do an Iron infusion bs oral iron tablets for you guys who have had one. I've had a gastric bypass. In other words at what point do I ask for an infusion?
