Aloha

I wanted to pop in on the Virginia board and say hello. I had RNY 4 1/2 years ago at Portsmouth Naval with Dr. Mann.   To date I have lost 133 lbs and have been bless with very little problems. I am anemic so I take prenatal vitamins 2x a day and iron drops in oj 3 x a week. It sure beats iron infusions.

Hubby is active duty Navy and we transferred to Hawaii in Aug 2010.

Hey Jen: wow Hawaii, we were station over there in 1990 and left in 94, we loved it. I also had Dr. Mann the best doc there is, I am telling you the people that had him for their WLS has very little problems compare to the other doctors. I had rny 14 months ago, have lost 160 pounds so far and loving life, and also have been blessed with  no problems, except I have to go to hematology because with this  year blood work my white blood count was low, which since I have been young my wbc has always been below normal, but they want me to go see why, other than that I have a lot of energy and always on the go. my hubby is retire Navy. 4 and 1/2 years that is so good, to see you looking good. glad I saw your post, first time on this site, feel free to write me anytime, take care. Did you have to go to hematology too?
