Possible DS reversal.

Yes Dr Greenbaum is my surgeon,.

Ah, that's different. Do the very best you can to get your nutrition in order. I hope the Creon helps. Did you say you can drink protein shakes? Maybe a whey protein isolate would be better absorbed and easier to get to stay down. Wishing all the best. Please keep us posted.

I think when Lori had all her problems, she'd lost too much weight.  She finally started doing 4-6 shakes a day.  Put on 20lbs which she needed and is doing great now.  Lori was working with Michelle, Vitalady.

ETA:  You can make your common channel a little longer rather than a reversal. 

I would make damned sure that there was no other option and that I was about to die before I would let anyone reverse me.  I had a rebound of 10 and then a regain of more than 10 from eating carbs.  I would be super super cautious about a reversal and would probably only let 1 or 2 surgeons in the world do it.~Becky

Thanks guys I will def keep u posted!!!!

Take the creon  and drink shakes. give it time.  protein first.  Dr. G is very conservative and puts the scare on everyone.  I took creon for a year, then i bounced back 10 pounds and now holding without creon and eating everything in site.  Shake shake shake. 

 

For some reason Dr. Greenbaum always mentions Creon to his patients. He sent me a prescription for it when I was less than a year out and was still considered overweight. I'd never take it within the first few years because bounce back is very possible!

I had my surgery Jan 22, 2010 with another Dr in WA, but Dr Greenbaum was my follow-up Dr & I was losing 16lbs per month when he put me on Creon - the people here told me to add another meal of food & in a few months I was off the creon & have maintained my weight. Hope it all works out for you.
