Guest guest Posted August 27, 2000 Report Share Posted August 27, 2000 Hi Lissa, I am feeling really good - but did not go back to work until after Labor Day. It didn't make any sense trying to do too much, even though I've been pain free. Yet still, my energy level is not up yet. Yes, my little one keeps me very busy. I work full time, and she goes to Daycare. Today was a bad day. She woke up crying at 4 AM coughing and wheezing - no temp - I have to see how it is tomorrow. If she's not better, I'll call her Dr. Yes, Dr. Herron is in the same group as Dr. Gagner. They are all excellent. I wish I could say the same about the hospital with their nursing/aid care. Leaves a lot to be desired. ly, it was quite disappointing to see such inadequate care provided by such a well known and respected hospital. So, you and friends want to go to JC Penney outlet? You won't believe it, but it's just about 10-15 minutes from my house. Of course, I go there a lot. So you had the open RNY - are you able to eat everything? How about portion-wise? I almost had RNY but backed out of it in the last minute (surgery was all scheduled). I heard of too many complications from that surgeon - but then again, there will always be complications, no matter what surgery and who does it. Take care Christa RE: New Members Christa Welcome! I'm so glad you are here. How are you feeling? You must be so busy with a 3 yr old .. I have a 2 yr old daughter and she runs me ragged lol but I love her. I also have a 9 yr old daughter .. I had open rny a year ago and doing well although lately I must admit my mind is playing tricks on me telling me to revert to bad habits but I'm trying. Congrats on your 24 lbs gone forever!!!! I am in NH but hope to get to CT soon to check out this JC Penney Outlet I keep hearing about. Does Dr. Herron work with Dr. Gagner in NY? Take care!Lyssa -----Original Message-----From: Christa Dixon Sent: Sunday, August 27, 2000 10:18 AMTo: OSSG-NewEnglandegroupsSubject: Re: New Members Hi everyone, I am one of those people who've just joined. My name is Christa - I live in Connecticut, am 57 yrs. old and raising a 3 year old granddaughter. I have the BPD/DS surgery on 7/12 with Dr. Herron at Mount Sinai in NYC. At my 4 week post-op consult, I had lost 24 lbs. I am feeling very well - am able to tolerate everything so far. Christa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
