Topic: RE: ATTENTION: Dr. Tim Ehrlichs Patients
You are all a bunch of brain washed people.  I called FCB to pretend I want my records transfered to ehrlich (can't even say his name), and they were nice as they can be.  They were also very helpful.  I have been told by others who were patients of ehrlich's that he is bad mouthing the doctors at FCB.  As a previous patient of ehrlich's, (thank goodness), I think it is very unproffesional and extremely distasteful for a (so called) professonal would keep bad mouthing his ex-employers to keep any patients he can.  How hard up can you get.  I am embarassed to say that ehrlich was my surgeon.  Not a great track record either might I add.
 The moral to this story here kids is that one: remember to get the whole story not just one side before there are any sladerous and libel statments made.
Two: even though it sounds as if i am bitter, it seems as if everyone is an adult so how about you all start acting like one. and lastly. grow up.

I've heard Norwalk hospital has a semi monthly open meeting in addition to those sponsored by the Floch brothers.  Sorry I cannot find the details at the moment but check out their website. 

I'll update when I find it.

Topic: RE: Post RNY ailments?
Not sure what to tell you about the knees. I have lived with bad knees since I was 23.
 
I do know that I now have vaso vagal issues. Basically my blood pressure drops and I can pass out. I have only passed out 3 times in a little over a year from it but I do get very sick from it. When I dump (which is getting more frequent it seems) my blood pressure will drop and I feel ickey for about half an hour. If it's not dumping it lasts longer.

I was also able to get pregnant and I know I wouldn't have been able to with out the weight loss.

My arthritis is better in my back so that's a plus.

Even with the vaso vagal issues I would still do it over again.

I shall now be know as Hagatha: Queen of the queens.
