Guest guest Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 Hey everyone, It has been a while since I posted and I wanted to say HELLO, and let you all know I'm doing ok. I had my gastric bypass on May 1st, and have since lost 47lbs, not thin yet but on my way. I would love to tell you all I feel fantastic, but alas, my body is still getting used to all the changes, and it is not real happy about it <smile> My WBC's have stayed below 10......so I'm way happy about that, I had my Potassium checked and it was 3.0 which is low, so I started eating more Postassium rich foods, and it hasn't been a problem. I go to MDACC on the 19th and will have to face the wrath of Dr. Kantarjian, as he really didn't approve of me having the surgery. You know I had to make the best decision for me. SO I DID! Sorry I have been out of touch so much lately, working and resting seems to take up a lot of time. I went back to work 10 days after surgery and I probably should have waited, but I didn't have another nurse to take care of my patients. So I guess I'm a little stretched out, but it'll be ok. Thanks for all the well wishes and inquiries, Zavie thanks for you ever present presence, you are such an inspiration. Faith, hope and love to all!
