42 Hours! Get ready to scoot over!
Jeannie and Joanne - congratulations on your Monday surgeries! How exciting!
Jeannie - my PS is scheduled for Monday. I see you are from Michigan. Where at? My surgery will be in Novi. Where will you be?
I was supposed to have my surgery on the 18th, but they had to reschedule because the anesthesia machine broke. BUT - I got sick the week before and it really was a good thing it was postponed. Now - this is the FIRST time since WLS I've been sick, and I've been thinking about why it happened now.
My only thought is I was taking Dry D3 forever. My labs were high so I stopped it for awhile. Even though my reserves are probably very good, I wasn't getting "fresh" doses. Its been shown in studies that D can keep you from getting sick. I'm almost a believer in that!!
