Hi LCBB and all Y'all!
Missed you guys last night. I spent the day at MUSC with Walker's best friend's mom. I took her down for her orientation for gastric bypass surgery. She was really nervous( remember?) and was afraid to drive downtown, so I went formoral support. She was accepted into the program and put into the system. I got to see Dr. Morgan and Dr. Byrne and served as an "after" example. I gave lots of tips and tricks(at least the ones I could remember) and told them about our support group. However, I was worn to a frazzle by the time I got home and couldn't make it to LCBB. I was asleep by 7:30! I have an appt. with my endocrinologist on Monday and he is going to adjust my thyroid meds., so I am excited to know that I will have more energy soon. I have been just SO exhausted for months.
I miss you guys so much. I have been reading your posts. Everybody has lots going on! I know that Deb is going through more than her share, for sure. Hope to see you at LCBB next week. Y'all take care and feel better! You're all in my prayers.
Love and hugs, B

I was hoping it was going to be a simple adjustment of my thyroid meds, but he decided to leave them where they are. He found at my visit that my blood pressure drops when I stand up, which is causing my dizziness. He is having me go for tests for my adrenal glands. Also, Friday, I go for a joint appt. with my neurologist and chiropractor about my sleep problems and fibromyalgia, which will address my pain and exhaustion. That should be interesting. So, right now, they say to rest and sleep, and drink alot of fluids. I'm dehydrated. All my blood tests look good. He thinks my weight loss is fantastic.
Thanks for thinking about me.
Love, B

I am sooo sorry you are having troubles with everything. I know what its like not to feel up to par. I no longer have the urniary pain since Sunday!! Praise Jesus, but today I just had absolutely no energy whatsoever, and it was awful! I just couldn't function or feel like doing anything!
I think I might have picked up a bug or something, so I am hoping tomorrow I will feel better. I am going for my mammogram tomorrow, its been over a year because of weightloss surgery, and hopefully it won't take too long.
I am supposed to go to a prayer meeting at a church in place of my pastor, but if I don't have the energy, I just don't know. Its so far away, and a long drive, gotta pray about going....I just wanna sleep!!
Love you Barb!!! Hope you feel better soon!! I know its hard on you! You are doing great!
Love ya!
Deb
