Morning All,
Hope this finds everyone doing great !!! If not, then that is why we are here !! " ) Just wanted to update you...I saw the doc. yesterday...the vaginal bleeding is a result of vaginal polyps...I have a gyn, appt. scheduled for removal and ultrasound, they had also spoken with my gastroenterologist office about all the problems I have been having since my nexium was switched because of insurance to prevacid and just was not doing the job at all....apparently, gastric reflux can be more of a problem with the sleeve, which the doctors office just informed me of. They were contacting insurance again to try to get me back on the nexium, but, got me some for the time being. I also have to have and upper GI, just to make sure everything is okay, on Friday. Last but not least, my doctor saw the terrible condition my knee was in, and referred me back to my orthopedist...what a mess I am...!!! At least she is thorough...!!! So , I am headed to being back on the mend and I am feeling good this AM, as I head out for blood work shortly.
Thanks for the concern. Niki
