Topic: Are you aware you may need this?
I had a nutritionist appointment on Monday and I am finally on stage five the life long stage of learning what I can eat again and what I cant. My nutritionist told me it would be a good idea to get medical bracelet. So instead of the bracelet I got dog tags. I am a massage therapist and I cant wear any jewelry to work. But just wanted to know has anyone else told to get a medical id bracelet. I actually had to get two dog tags because of the rny and all my allergies and asthma.
Show you what I put on one dog tag......
RNY GASTRIC BYPASS
FEBRUARY 3RD 2009
NO BLIND NG TUBE
NO NSAIDS
IF NEEDED USE PPI'S
Don't know if everyone needs one but my nutritionist told me because if I ever get ill and pass out its good to have on me and if they try to put a tube down my throat they will keep pushing and pushing and nothing will happen. So just wanted to know if anyone else was told this. Oh yeah I got two cards as well saying I can order off the kids menu. Go figure I started to laugh it was kind of funny.

It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle
when the sun comes up you'd better be running.

So, I did it. I put my two month surgiversay pics up in my profile, with before pics. I cannot figure out how to put them in the message board, but that's okay.
I can actually look at the pics and see the difference.
I'm loving my new tummy!!

Topic: RE: LABS ARE IN
So did they put you on ferrus fumerate? That's what they put me on because of my iron level and saturation level being low. Did they have you start calcium supplements? My calcium was at the high end of normal and Dr Moon said for me to start taking the calcium citrate petites.
How did the rest of your visit go?
