Good for you! I too am very happy with my loss, approximately 115-120 lbs depending on the day. I thank God daily that I was able to get this surgery, and he blesses me with your welcomes with the compliments I get. Lori 258/138

Topic: survey help
Hi-My name is Martha Dunn. I am completing my doctoral degree at Antioch New England Graduate School. My dissertation research project explores post bariatric surgery behavior, struggles and needs. If you have 10-15 minutes to complete the survey, it would be a big help to me. Also, if you have friends who've also had the surgery and could forward this message to them, that would be great. More in-depth details are on the link that follows and thank you in advance. Martha http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=60661940436

yes, tell your doctor....it could also be low blood pressure, or a million other things... I have a shaky feeling like I am going to pass out on a regular basis...it is one of two things for me....low blood sugar and/or low blood pressure... For me, neither was caused from WLS....I had both years ago when I was on the thinner side.... Keep us posted...we learn from each other.... Best wishes RAE'

Jennifer, Be sure to go tell your GB Doc. I have been having those issues and my labs were just incredibly bad. I'm not absorbing nutrients from my food. I've felt much better since doubling up on the majority of my vitamins and having an iron infusion. I didn't have problems until after my TT and BR and it seemed to bring on the symptoms. Course turns out I had a very large ulcer too. Your spells could be sugar or any number of things. I'd check with my doc to be sure or your primary care physician. I've learned that bugging them is the only way to get anwsers. Take Care! Donna Paige 339/135 Open RNY-4/12/04 Open GB- 11/27/04 BR/TT w/ anchor incision - 12/5/05 Woohoo! Having my thighs done on April 14th (just 9 days away)

Hi Lara. Thanks for your prayers. As I wrote to RAE and DTM, I just finished my CAT scans on Thursday. I will see my gastroenterologist on April 11 and have the upper endoscopy on the 18th. Then I hope to be done with tests for awhile. I'm anxiously awaiting the results. I hope all is going well for you. I pray that your back gets better and better. Peg
