Guest guest Posted April 22, 2004 Report Share Posted April 22, 2004 Tita, try to remember how good you felt when you first started losing. Try to take a few minutes every few hours to just be by yourself (and God) (even if you have to lock yourself in the bathroom for a few minutes), meditate and let go of some of the stress. I will keep you in my prayers...Good luck... D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 shannon and bonnie are right.don't let anyone elses negative thoughts or feelings sway you in your following what your dr told you about the weight loss surgery.i found that people think they can tell me what to do all day long but when it comes to them.they got nothing to say.your weight loss is right target.KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. p.s. to keep you spirit up. this rose is for you.sorry no thorns for all those that don't belive. bonniekreacic1217 wrote: Don't listen to what other people say!!!! Take care of your body and do all the necessary things, follow the rules and the weight has no choice but to come off. Suggesting diet pills and fat burners is nothing but ignorance and stupidity on their part. Ask yourself when the last time you lost 31 pounds in 3 1/2 weeks. To me it sounds like you are exactly where you need to be.

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Hi, my name is Tammy and I am have been tentatively diagnosed with Neurosarcoidosis. I had what I thought was back pain, that turned into extreme headache. Was hospitalized in late June because my CSF was 2 1/2 times the normal pressure. Neurologist believes I had aseptic meningitis with sarcoid. MRI/CAT scans were unremarkable. Elevated ACE levels and " strange cells " . I feel like it may be in my lungs as well. My brother has a severe case of neurosarcoid(genius to MR in 3 yrs) and my cousin a severe case of pulmonary. Both with other organ involvement. Anyway... My problem is that I live in rural southern Oregon and don't think they know enough about Sarcoid to treat me sufficiently. I decided to not go to the local Rhumetologist as recommended by neuro, but to have a referral sent to UC San Francisco. SF has now " declined " to see me. They reviewed my paperwork and decided I did not warrant their being seen by them. Has anyone had this issue before? Am I over reacting? Any advice would be helpful. This is tough enough without all the hoops. Thank you in advance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Hello Tammy, Although I'm terribly sorry you had a reason to find us, you have found a great group of people who will help you anyway they can. I live on the other side of the country, but I know there are some of us from your area who should have some answers.
