Edema anyone?
Wondering if anyone has experience with edema (swelling, fluid retention) in the legs and belly. I've had quite a bit over the past 10-15 days and am quite discouraged. I've gained around 15-20 pounds. My GI doctor suggested a salt restricted diet and compression stockings (miserable in the southern

Vagal Af?
Also I have had a
gastric
bypass
and Af started afterwards . I'm quite sure all of my af epidodes have started after eating rubbish and eating fast and since starting my healthier diet I do feel better and only mini runs of 10 seconds of Af and my etopics are not as bad.

Just a thought
What if every member on here. wrote to the daily mail with their story. they are always asking for folk to do this. this might highlight the problems that folk are facing. especially if everyone did it. I am really horrified when I see what a battle most folk have with their doctors and the arrogant

Learn to Help Yourself First !
3 YEARS OF FRUSTRATION BUT LEARNED TO DIAGNOSE MYSELF ! I now know for certain that many doctors in local surgeries are NOT aware of many medical problems with their patients. The best thing I did was to learn from my laptop all there was to know about what my illness was and how to treat it myself.

Miss Piggy.....
Plus on research there seems to be a connection with having a
gastric
bypass
...which I have had. I know its common sense that I shall now eat earlier and not be so greedy but do I really have to give up sweets too? Or is it just the amount that I eat at once...or are sweets a trigger too.

Running was always just a dream.
But last year I had a
gastric
bypass
and it really changed my life. I lost 75 pounds and decided to finally try to run! And I am! Just not very fast. I completed the C25K program but am only running 1.5 miles in 30 minutes. I want to eventually run a real 5K so I need to be a little faster.

He's had the Cyclo, Aza, Meth, & Myco, now on Rituximab which seems to be tackling it after 5 years. He's had a triple heart bypass, squamous cell
