Spring Carlise

Hello all!  My husband and I will be coming to your beautiful state next week for Spring Carlise. We've come down for it for years.  This year we will be staying in Carlise.  I will be 8 weeks out from RNY. I don't expect amy issues/problems, but if I should have any, any special hospital in the area that is RNY friendly?  Gonna be a bit of a challege eating healthy and getting all my protien in on the fair grounds but I got a game plan!   Thanks for any and all advice!  Cindy

You won't 'be too far from Hershey Medical Center. I know that some on this forum have had their surgery there and know the names of bariatric surgeons on staff. But let's hope you don't need anything! It's not exactly next door to Carlisle, but not too far away (30 minutes or so) and in case of emergency it's definitely where I'd want to be given your recent surgery.

Pack your own food for the trip - cheese sticks, protein powder in baggies to mix with skim milk, yogurt, etc. You can also do some grocery shopping while in the area (there is a beautiful Wegmans store on Carlisle Pike - I'd go there!)

Enjoy your visit to PA!

Thank you!  We always do, just might a little more of a challenge this year with my recent surgery, but I can't wait!  Really forward to it every year!  Cindy

you will also be even closer to community general they call it now and they also have a gastric bypass floor.. hope you enjoy your visit....

Have fun :)

I live in Carlisle and would be happy to help if need be. The hospital Pinnacle Health or Harrisburg Community General (same place, different names) is great and 25 minutes away. Contact me and I'll send you my  phone number should you have a problem and I can help. It's a great place for exercise for the weekend if you're in to walking.

Thank you everyone!  it's good to know there is some place close by just in case.  I will be doing  ALOT of walking!!!  Love Spring Carlise, can't wait!  Cindy

Congrats, Good Luck, and Have Fun.

I avoid Carlisle at all costs that time of year! LOL
