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.

Hello & info please.
I know I need the mal absorption aspect of the surgery but Luton offer the
gastric
bypass
and the dudenal switch and I'm wondering if anyone on here can tell me long term how they have got on with either of these options. Thanks in advance.

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.

Hip Replacement
Just a note of warning. My husband has GPA (Wegener's) since Oct 10, diagnosed Nov 11. He's been on Pred starting at 70mg per day, now down to 5mg per day. 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

Gastric Bypass Surgery?!
I just got out of my appointment with my rheumy about pain levels and, as per, I had to bring up the 'Why is it everyone just wants to talk about my weight' conversation. I mentioned getting a wheelchair, had new crutches and was rather proud of how I was moving around, but no. He wants me to be free

CT Tomography
I am having a CT Tomography tomorrow to see if I have any Artery Blockage ( due to my younger brothers recent Triple Heart Bypass because of blockages, and Heart problems run in family).. My CT Scan is less intrusive than having the Angiogram which goes through the vein at your wrist.... what I want
