Topic: Home from OHSU
Well, you'll all remember that I didn't have a very good experience in the OHSU hospital when I had my WLS. Here is the link to the story about my back surgery.  I was waiting for Vincent Price or someone to come in.  I'm never going back to that hospital again!

Thanks Patty,

I am taking Dayquil and Nyquil and they dont seem to bother my tummy.  I wasnt sure if  they had aspirin in them.

I do, but I know everyone is different.  My surgeons biggest warning was about NSAIDs which Nyquil doesn't have.  When I'm sick I have got to have that green stuff soothing my throat and knowing there is a chance I will get some sleep - though it gives me weird dreams.  It burns my tummy for a few minutes, but it always did that before WLS.

Topic: RE: Anyone near Silverton??
I had my surgery in Mexico on 10-10-08. I am seeing both Dr. kelly Fitzpatrick in Milwaukie, OR. & Dr. Deveney from OHSU in Portland, OR. I do not belong to a group that meets just a couple online groups. One of the groups I belong to is run by a lady that was a nurse for Dr. Kuri for 25 years. So any advise I need I can turn to her if I can not get quick results from my doctors office. If you need someone for support I would be glad to be there for you. Just send me a private message and I will send you my personal e-mail.

Thanks for responding! Do you attend support meetings? Are you post op? If so, were you banded as well?

Warm wishes!

Dr. Kelly also has an office in portland so you can be seen on Saturdays. She is so great I just love her. Cost is $190.00 for the first visit and $170.00 there after. She has a web site you can go check her out http://gastricbands.com/index.html.
