Guest guest Posted July 15, 2004 Report Share Posted July 15, 2004 First and foremost I want to tell you how I feel. I was trying to help another on here by explaining the difficulties of sleeping for one night with a significant other especially if you are not married. I remarked and spilled my guts and you made some " funny " joke about telling them it was a gas leak after they " came to " . This is number one a slightly embarassing situation for myself and the fact that you could even say something like that on this website means that you are here for a different reason than the rest of us, or so it seems. I come here to offer and seek support, not be ridiculed or questioned on my every move. Everyone's doctor and program is different and the doctors, if researched, know what they are doing. I understand that you have researched the American Standard Surgical Consult and New England Journal of Medicine, although I feel that we should follow ,ultimately, what each of our doctors say.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 SOMEONE ASKED YOU TO LEAVE?????? THAT IS UNCALLED FOR. WE ALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO SPEAK OUR MINDS. I THINK THE PERSON WHO ASKED YOU TO LEAVE SHOULD LEAVE. IT GETS MORE RIDICULOUS EVERYDAY AND I AM SORRY TO SAY WE ARE GOING TO BE LOOSING A WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE IF WE BOOT EVERYONE OUT THAT DOES NOT AGREE WITH US. I AM PERSONALLY OFFENDED THAT SOMEONE WOULD ASK YOU TO LEAVE!!!!! PLEASE EMAIL ME PERSONALLY IN THE FUTURE. I LOVE TO HEAR WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY. YOU ARE A HELL OF A LOT MORE EDUCATED THAN I AM. WHAT MAKES THEIR OPINION BETTER THAN YOURS???? I AM PISSED AT THAT!!!! MAYBE THIS WEBSITE IS NOT WHAT I THOUGHT IT WAS. EMAIL ME AT dora.mccary@... I WISH YOU WOULD NOT GO AND WHOEVER ASKED YOU TO LEAVE SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES. DORA GET THE FACTS AND GET WITH IT FOR YOUR OWN GOOD! Hi everybody, I must say that the New England Journal of Medicine and the American Standard Surgical Consult and numerous others are available to everybody out there. I simply say what I say because I researched the HELL out of this procedure and over 20 years of study and post op diets. I thought I was coming here for support but every time I quesion one you on something that is forbidden after these procedures I get a volley of snotty personal emails full of trite and snide remarks. MOST of which concerning the fact that I am new here and also that I " sound like a know it all " . I also get a ton of very nice messages but I'm not here to get a back rub. If you people want to poison yourselves and 10 or 20 years from now or MUCH sooner be seeking surgery or therapy for your intestines etc that IS your choice. But that is not why I'm here and must sadly ask the moderators at this point to simply delete my profile and email address from this groups. No offense to those of you who are serious about your health but I've been too old for kindergarten for many years now and many of you are lying to yourselves just enough to be at about that level. Tah Tah all. Thank you By the way, tomorrow is my post op check up. I'll keep you all in my prayers. Even the one that asked me to leave because I am " stirring up trouble " .

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 ultimately, what each of our doctors say. Maybe I am stepping out there, but if that is how you feel then that is what you should do. But when someone asks a question they are doing it because they want an answer. If you answer is to always listen to " your " doctor then you would not need the advice or suggestions of others you would only call " your " doctor. I appreciate hearing what others have done or are doing even if it is different from what my doctor says. I like to read it but I might not follow another persons way.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 I was just saying that we should follow their guidelines if we chose to go to credible surgeons who know a hell of a lot more than you or I. I was not the one that told him to leave either, I wanted to state how I felt about his comment on my situation. I do not e-mail anyone from this group, I only post. bethany > ultimately, what each of our > doctors say. > > Maybe I am stepping out there, but if that is how you feel then that is what you should do.
