Topic: RE: Thinning hair...
Thinning hair is quite common, and usually comes back after 6 - 8 months. Some folks swear by Biotin to help stop/slow/reverse hair loss. Since I am bald, I wouldn't know.
Good Luck on your Journey !!

Hi Katie,

I'm happy to help. I know it's kind of scary whenn you start having this weird pain and you're not sure what is causing it.  You might start to feel much better when you can eat mushy food, at least.   Sometimes having such an empty stomach causes a lot more gas! 

Feel better soon. I hope you're all healed up and good to go soon.

Very true! Today my husband and I took a walk..we walked about 3 miles..further than I have ever walked at one time ..and further than I thought I could! I am so proud of myself! And I was able to keep my eating down to "normal" today...I had my water bottle with me ALL DAY! Next weekend my son and his family (whom I have not seen since August) will be here. They will be surprised at the 35+ pounds I am down(and still going down!)

Hi N.M..
I really appreciate all the info you have given me. It's been so helpful in judging what's going on.
Thank God, its gone from three percoset at the beginning to one. It's really fine during the day,
and starts after I've eaten my evening meal.  In the morning the last two days, it's been relatively
okay.
I'm interested to see what happens when I start mushies on Wed..   I'll play by ear for awhile and see how it develops. I'll let you know. Thanks again, Katie
