Topic: RE: Hattiesburg Support Group
There used to be a couple of people with the lapband that came, but I haven't seen them in quite some time. One of them was trying to get a revision to Rny. But I don't know whatever happened with that. She hasn't come back.

Toni...
Hi...hope that you can get this solved...and I know you will...
first I am out getting close to 3 years...and I still love my band...
one of my favorite things is very easy to make and easy to eat...high in protein and filling...
I mix tuna and cream cheese...(a friend that had the RnY told me about it...and now I am hooked) it is so much better than tuna and mayo...I usually eat it with a few ritz crackers...
the other thing that comes to mind...do you think you have first bite sydrome??? try drinking something warm right before eating...(coffee, tea, broth) just a few sips...it helps to open up the stoma...I hope this helps...and if you have any other questions...just let me know..
Blessings...Debbi

Topic: RE: Follow-up Lab Results
I had the same thing happen along with a low red blood cell count. The hematologist said the only way he could find anything out would be to do a bone marrow biopsy. He said they would just keep an eye on it. I go every six months. Let me know what you find out.
