I have not gotten all my test results back-specifically the "Dookie" test. Have you seen the results of yours on kp.org?
Topic: Are you all ok with........
Having a lovely lady who made up one of her classes in our Options class, join our OH group?
I have been emailing with Nuyvon79 (and I'm a terrible person, I cannot remember her name, so sorry), and she made up her final class during one of our January classes. She absolutely loved our group, and the ladies in it.
She was scheduled to have surgery in July, but recently received a call about an opening and has since had surgery on May 11th. She is a VSG patient, and may be a valuable source of information for many of us, as well as another supporter for us all.
I wanted to check in with you all first, to see if you all were okay with this. Personally, I am ok with this.

I got a letter today stating that my vitamin D levels are low too. It said that a perscription has been placed for me and that I'm to retest around the same time as you.
I'm glad you asked them if that would cause any problems for surgery. I'd hate to have it cause a delay.
Haven't heard anything else at this time either. Just sitting and waiting, althought I'm thinking of calling through to Positive Choice to see how long it will take for the authorization to come through.

I weighed 277 Thursday AM and 281 in the PM. I am slipping back to my yo-yo weight. I found out in my labs that my Vitamin D level is very low so I have to take mega doses and retest levels in August. I freaked out and called positive choice to find out if this would derail the progress towards surgery. Not to worry, it doesn't but I haven't heard anything this week. Good luck with finals.
