Thanks, I wish I was doing better as well.
Im not sure if that pouch test applies to me. I really do not have a pouch, thats not what they do with a DS.

Best wishes.....
I am sorry to come across someone who is suffering and to top it receives a bill from a Dr/Surgeon who has left a job incompleted. The is disgusting in my opinion.
However know that here there is care and concern, as you already know. But like the others have said, pursue this daily if you have too, I know it gets old after awhile of feeling bad, being in hospitals, seeming as nothing improves and I can understand that bringing back some of the weight makes you feel even worse. But please dont give up. Your journey has not started yet until this pain is removed, someone out there has the skills to help and demand that your Dr or Insurance get to the bottom of this, there are advocates who pursue these types of problems within the hospital systems and also within some insurance companies, possibly using there resources can bring some needed relief to this matter once and for all. Sending you all good thoughts.

Hello Keith,
I'm new since you were last online, but until your doctors sort you out, could you find any answers in "Weight Loss Surgery for Dummies" which is readily available in the US bookstores or online?
As for immediate encourgement, how about doing the 5 day pouch diet again? Pretend that you have only just had your surgery and today is day one of your new diet? Forget the past, just start with today.
Best wishes for courage and strength - and I'm glad you turned to TTF - we are here for us all, including you!
Cheers!
