Guest guest Posted January 12, 2000 Report Share Posted January 12, 2000 WinRho is the blood product used for pregnant women who are RH negative. It is given at 28 weeks and after birth if the baby's blood is postive. If you need more info let me know! List Owner What? From: art de mano < " artdemano@... " @earthlink.net> Quick query: Please explain/define IVH, ITP, and WinRho Immune Globulin Intraveneous. What exactly is this product used to treat, and what exactly were the complications associated with it. Yes, I read the article, and I usually have a fairly good grasp of the English lanuage, but I'm clueless!

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2000 Report Share Posted January 12, 2000 I too am RH neg, and got the shot. If you don't get it and the baby is also neg - there will be no problems, the problems arise when you are carrying a pos baby, and your blood comes into contact with that of the baby. I have had two children and both are neg - so I should not have any antibodies in my system - I still got the shot to be on the safe side.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2000 Report Share Posted January 12, 2000 I do not know a lot about it. My best friend got the product insert so I waiting for her to bring it over and hopefully I can scan it and e-mail it to you. My best friend and I did some research on WinRho starting the moment she found out she was pregnant. Honestly we did not find any negative info, this story was the first I found besides personal info from RH negative women. My best friend decided, enough though she will not vaccinate, to take the shot. Rh neagtive women who do not get the shot can have their bodies kill their babies. I understand that some RH negative women who do not get the shot have healthy babies but some do not. My best friend was not willing to take the risk. The WinRho, also called Rhogam. The side effected listed in the product insert are discomfort and swelling, that's it. It is made from sterlized freeze dried gamma globluin, fraction a human plasma containing antibodies. Sodium chloride(.04) glycine (.1) polysorbate 80 (.01) I will get my hand on the product insert for you soon! List Owner What? > > From: art de mano < " artdemano@...

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2000 Report Share Posted January 13, 2000 I'm Rh negative too and 24 weeks -- so it's coming up fast for me. I've been trying to find the down side to the shot for months and haven't come across anything. And I accidentally deleted the file (can someone please e-mail me with it??? I know that the baby's blood is unlikely to mix with your's while you're pregnant, unless you get some invasive procedure done like an amnio. I'm not really sure at this point how necessary the 28 week shot is. After the baby's born, if it's Rh positive you get another shot, which is designed to protect future babies.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Share Posted May 9, 2002 Dr. Rutledge told a group of us at the clinic last year before the picnic that it is a know fact that our intestines do learn to " adjust " to the bypass over time, hence the 18 to 24 month " window of opportunity " . I don't think that this is set in stone as that is the only time we can or will lose weight. However it is meant that this is the " best " time to have success at weight loss and that we shouldn't waste this time. I am 19 months out now and know that the weight comes off MUCH more slowly now and takes effort on my part. I like you sometimes have " different " bowel movements but much of the time mine are pretty normal, hence the adjustment of my body I believe. in GA WHAT?

Our intestines are still bypassed. I am almost 2 years out, and I still have the orange team proof at times taht my intestines are not at all absorbing everything. Where did you hear this? Rutledge?

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Share Posted May 9, 2002 NO! I don't want my body to ever get used to this and start using more calories! I guess I better start some kind of savings for a revision down the road. I never want to go back to where I was. Never. I thought the bypass part of the surgery was supposed to be for long term maintenance. Isn't it?

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Share Posted May 9, 2002 Hi Margaret and all: Last fall when I met with Dr. R, he said that the part of the bowel that has been connected to the stomach pouch begins to expand and absorb more nutrients and of course calories. Most of us that are past 1 year have expanded our stomachs so we do take in more than 4 oz. of food at each serving. Thus, if we overeat and take in more calories than we need and if we don't develop good eating and exercising habits, we can start to gain wt. again. Another reason to exercise and eat right just as said in her e-mail a couple of days ago. It sounds terrible, but according to my understanding of what the good doctor said, it is possible to start to regain after we leave that 18-24 month grace period. We all need to be careful and be good to ourselves! Blessings! Betty Pappas 3/13/00 Re: WHAT? > NO! I don't want my body to ever get used to this and start using > more calories!

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Share Posted May 9, 2002 Well, I am sure there is some adjusting, but not back to the way I was before as I know if I ate then like I am eating now, I still continually gained weight. I know our bodies are remarkably adaptive, so understand that part of it. Pat Re: WHAT?

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2002 Report Share Posted May 10, 2002 Remeber - Dr R tells us that bypass surgery is only part of the solution - we have freedom of choice and we have to choose to eat healthy and exercise. It is our body and yes we will lose the weight but only WE can keep it off! Carol Re: WHAT? > NO! I don't want my body to ever get used to this and start using > more calories!

Guest guest Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 " Microorganisms called Chlamydia and Mycoplasma may also cause UTIs in both men and women, but these infections tend to remain limited to the urethra and reproductive system.

Guest guest Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 That's most likely an old article. Was it on the website or in one of the group articles?
