Update on Me...............

[Guest guest]

Thank you so much to all of you who sent the labs to go by, the

supplements to take, and the

scheduling of them - very much appreciated,

plus the words of encouragement. Thanks !!!

Today, I saw my new physician, and I am very happy with her. I asked

for my lab report, and she said 'no problem' - I also told her why we

had to compare reports, not just the levels. She is willing to learn,

and was impressed that I had all of my records from Alaska, and also

from my WLS. Soooooo, today I had a full fledged yearly physical -

including pap, mammo, all labs (and then some), and a bone density test.

I was there for 4 hours. She said all results should be back within a

week or so, as they had to send some to Spokane. I am

so glad that I had all of this taken care of in

an expedient manner. I just want to add that I

asked her about a letter for my hernia repair.

TT, and breast lift - she said just let her know when I need it !!!

Also, I am just now getting

rid of a rash under my left breast - so she was

able to document it - and also write a script.

I am feeling much better after my bout with

dehydration. The headache is getting better

every day, thank goodness. I am drinking

water, herbal tea, and Crystal light - in great

quanities I might add.

I hope everyone out there is doing well. I don't

write very often, but I do read the digest. I also e-mail privately,

quite frequently. I am happy to

say that we have a great Support Group, within

a half hour drive of my home, and it is much

more organized, and has a wealth of good information - much better than

my group in

Alaska.

Warmly, Joannie
