 You shouldn't need to purée peanut butter and jelly, just don't put it on any bread and make sure the jelly is sugar free :). I agree to add the PB2 to shakes and oatmeal,,my grocery store sells it, right next to the regular peanut butter....

Everyone's been great except his nurse and he is one of those docs that allows the nurse to pretty much do everything and he just signs the papers

I'm sorry you are having such a hard time with your support people. I can say that all the support people I've been working with have been great!  I don't have to worry about return to work dates as I am currently unemployed. That's why I thought this was a good time to get it done.

The surgeon's nurse just returned my call.  She was so rude, she states she mailed my paperwork out today and that it usually takes 72 hrs.  Like I should be grateful that she is rushing for me.  I told her that I wanted it faxed and she said well you should get it by tomorrow or Monday.  I asked her what she put on the paper and she said that she does so many that she couldn't remember, that it will be here soon and I can read it.  Talk about customer service HA!

Although I have gas at both ends (TMI) the burping is what hurts. I get su*****redible pain in my chest until I get the burp out. This is without any restriction in my band. What's it going to be like when they start adding saline?

 Oh wow, that's today!  (well technically it's yesterday because it's after midnight.)  Trusting all has gone well.  Hoping you will have as easy a time as I had.  I'm two weeks out and feeling great.

Topic: So Frustrated !!
I'm a nurse on a very busy L/D unit where 90% of the pts have epidurals and can't turn themselves.  This leaves me pushing, pulling, moving pts all day long.  My MD originally said take off 2 weeks.  I'm 1 1/2 weeks out and met with him today.  I explained to him that there is NO light duty on my unit.  He told me to take one more week and then go back and "take it easy".  What part of there is no easy on my unit does he not understand?  Sorry to vent, just very frustrated !!!!!!!!!!!!  I'm going to call and talk with employee health tomorrow and see what they say.
Thanks for listening :)
Mandy
