Hi All, I have enjoyed reading information from many folks, although I would like to search for topics of interest within the forums. I've use the "search this forum" and it returns a page showing failed link. I've tried various topics, also used my cell phone and laptop. Nothing seems to work. If you are aware of this or a way around it, please let me know.
I am 12 years out from BPD/DS and still appreciate every pound I have lost. I've gained back a little, but am working on that.
Thanks for any suggestions,
Cindy
scroll all the way down to the bottom of any page, click the contact us link snd you can report technical problems.
I just tried a search and got the same result - "Internal Server Error". Sounds like some technical issue on their end. I'm sure they'll have it going again sometime today..

Hey Jen,
Thanks for the feedback!
I'm with you on being hyper aware of everything. Since I have no benchmark for surgery, I'm analyzing everything. I did call the nurse triage today and sent them pictures. She said everything looks like it's healing normally. I also had a follow up call with Saturday's discharge nurse. She said it sounds like everything is going great for three days out. Will definitely be leveraging the nurse and dietician lines for support as needed.
Thanks for putting me back in my head! Cheers.

Sounds like normal healing to me. If you?re not showing signs of infection, not having increased pain, and the nurse says everything looks fine, you probably don?t have anything to worry about. Post Op, I was hyper aware of everything?is this twinge something, is that one something else?.and it?s very good to pay attention and follow up with your medical team if anything is causing you a concern, that is what they are there for.
