My name is Millie and I've been considering the RNY with Dr. Aceves for some time now. As Nina might attest to. . I am very cautious and even though I haven't taken the step to go down and visit with Nina and Dr. Aceves. . I have been following your success very closely. I believe you are the only RNY patient that posts to this site from Dr. Aceves' group. I have been working on getting the money together for the surgery as well as reading and learning as much as I could about the procedure and the after affects.

I'm 5'4 and weigh about 330 lbs. YUK, YUK, YUK!!!!!! I'm in desperate mode and don't know if I can live with myself much longer with this weight!!! Every day is a challenge getting out of bed and facing the mirror that tells the story of how irresponsible I've become with what should be the most important thing in the world. . MYSELF!!

I salute your courage and your ability to continue with your struggle in spite of the challenges you've faced. Undoubtedly, given your posts. . I'm sure you would not change a thing, if given the opportunity. . . however, what, if anything would you do differently if you had to do it over again? This goes for any of the other RNY patients, if any. . . I'm just wanting to do things as right as humanly possible when I finally do it myself.

You are all a great inspiration to me and I salute all of you for your weight loss, determination and courage!!

Millie

I I asked the programmers to go into this group and take the picture for the "before" and "In progress" pictures so if you put them here I will ask them to go in to your folder and put them up.

we have many patients interested int eh RNY surgery, hope you do to mind all the questions :)

I am glad you are feeling better, youa right abou the money part, at least this is healthier .

Hi Nina (and everyone else) -Do you guys have your new website up? I have a new before and during pic that I think is pretty great. I'm going to upload it to the group files.I'm still losing weight at a steady pace. I tried to eat a piece of cornbread this morning and threw it right back up. Blech! I don't know what it is about flour that makes me vomit. Yuck!My clinical nudes are really starting to show a difference. I'm doing them each month on my surgery date, and I can now see a big difference from before surgery and now.For my fellow RNY patients, I am doing some things that I think are really helping with how I feel and with my weight loss. I don't eat much. It's hard for me to eat, but I am becoming fanatical about vitamins and protein shakes. They really seem to help me feel better and keep the weight loss

going. I notice that when I don't do protein shakes for a few days, the loss stalls. When I start back on them I lose a chunk of weight all at once! The biggest problem is that it is wickedly expensive to import them here to Jamaica. Oh well! I figure I'm not spending money on all that food anymore, right?--------------------- in Jamaica (yep, the island!)

Hey, both look good. I like the color combinations on the bandgastricbypass.com page better. :) But I have always been partial to hunter green. Curtis loves the fact that they are using the picture he took of you on your profile page. Great, now he has a big head thinking he is some great photographer. :)

Foxx,

Using this reply to get a message to you. How do I sign off the listserve for three weeks when I am out of the country and don't want my mailbox stuffed? Would like to reconnect when I return.

Also, we could plan whatever classes you might like to schedule in Boston area when I return end of June.

Much appreciated, Mark

Mark,

Best way is to go the the list home-page

(groups/ ) and click the link to Edit

Membership.in the upper left of the page. On the ensuing page, choose " No

E-Mails " . This way you won't have to leave the group and come back, and you'll

be able simply to re-activate the messages when you get back.

,

Having just returned 2 weeks ago from my myotomy by Dr. Rice, I can

attest that the Cleveland Clinic (which they call CCF for Cleveland

Clinic Foundation) is a wonderful facility filled to the rafters with

caring people and the latest achalasia treatments.

While sometimes it seemed like I was handling my own care as I walked

from area to area for the required testing, there were many red-

coated workers alone the way to make sure that we weren't lost,

didn't need a wheelchair, or just to give an extra smile. There was

only one nurse who didn't react as quickly as my pain demanded, but

since it was 3am and the facility was experiencing a power outage, I

forgive her.

I won't kid you, the 3 hour drive seems VERY LONG on the way home.

But it was worth it to get the best care possible. And feeling like

I now have a medical team who really DOES want my esophagus to last a

lifetime, or at least as long as possible, is priceless.

And you're right - the website was a big help, although we didn't use

the conseirge services.

Dear Shweta Mehta,

You may wish to advertise this site on Pharm Tech Talk and Pharamcy

Island. Recently on Pharm Tech Talk there have been a few pharm

students and pharmacists from countries outside of the US posting who

may benefit from your site.

Respectfully,

Hi Tammy,

The page was not found, but I started cutting and pasting portions of the

excerpt ypu posted earlier. I did eventually run across it. I saved the

PDF to my hard drive for myself and anyone else interested in the full

article. I find it very interesting, particularly since the symptoms and IG

panel / MV levels for each patient in the study were very well charted...I

will take it to my doc.

The full title is " Clinical and Molecular Variation in childhood periodic

fever with hyperimmunoglobulinaemia D " by Frenkel, Houten, & et al. I

highly recommend it to anyone wanting to know more about HIDS and how the

symptoms and labs vary. If anyone wants the PDF, please email me and I will

send it as an attachment.

Thanks again!

I went back and found the page again... hopefully it works for anyone

interested. I found it by hitting your link, clicking the word rheumatology

above the page not found, then doing a search for " periodic fever and

hyperimmunoglobulinaemia " . The article is free to the public.

I know - I'm sorry! Flo and I both work full time jobs, but this week-

end will hopefully see things caught up.

It's a pleasure to see it coming together - what an awesome idea on

Flo's part, and what a joy to volunteer the time and work to do it. I

know many MGBs to come will benefit greatly from everyone's

participation!

Holey Moley a girl...give me some time. LOL...I'm getting there. It is way

more time-consuming than I thought and it will be a month or more until I am

caught up.

To make matters worse, I fell off a step ladder and tore the ligaments at the

back of my knee. Groan...hurt...

Needless to say my family has learned some new words. And I will be thinking

twice about wallpapering my girlfriend's kitchen next time.

Hope everyone will be patient. This is a volunteer thing with my time and my

expense and it's got to fit in with my work and family responsibilities.

I promise I'll get there but it's going to take me time.

Here's a sign for the complaint department office door-- When my oldest brother

was in high school (about 40 years ago), he carved a sign that I have hanging in

my office to this very day. It says,

The Person In Charge of Complaints

is Ms. Helen Waite.

If you have a complaint,

kindly go to Helen Waite.
