    Hello. Thank you for telling me about this. I had not heard this. After what I went through there I not surprized at all. I am doing ok. I still need to work harder to get a few more pounds off but I am feeling great. How are you doing? Good to hear from you.

    We have daily messages for food and exercise, I don't think the moderators would mind one for Gritch/Gush - but that's up to you.

    Hi, I am so glad you are feeling better. I went to N O and I have to go back for a scope and maybe surgery. They have scared the heck out of me. Dr. Cummins really told me all the what it could be and that i had to go. I wanted to just forget about the whole mess. I am waiting for them to call me with an appt. I really liked the doctor I saw down there. I just wish it was not so far away. That is a big problem for me. I sure hope you continue to get better. I am still happy i had the surgery but it sure has made it a lot harder to see whats going on. Take care and let me hear from you. If you dont mind i will use that email address soon .. i think we can talk better that way.

    Hello. I was glad to hear from you again. I have not met Ron but he is really nice over the phone. He is helping me with my appointment to New Orleans. They can do a scope to check out my liver down there. I sure dread it since I am feeling better. I NEVER want to be a patient at River Oaks again. I don't they have very good communation beteen the doctors and nurses at all. I had some really uncareing nurses. I like Dr. Cummins ok but that was the first time I had seen her.
    I hope you can find out what is causing your problems. I would do this surgery all over again but there sure is a lot they don't tell you about what can happen.

    PS - The clinic co-ordinator Dee Dee (Anderson?) recently had to have her gall bladder removed. This was AFTER the clinic moved to River Oaks. Dr. Cummins did the surgery at CMMC! Dee Dee said she insisted on that! Speaks volumes doesn't it? BTW Dr. Cummins hates River Oaks as well and urged me to write to the board.

    Hello Dixie,

    You've been going to the same group of doctors as I have! Dr. Erin Cummins did my surgery. I both like and hate her. I think she's an extremely good doctor and my surgery went very well in spite of being at River Oaks. What a nightmare! However Dr. Cummins is, like most surgeons, a bit hard headed. LOL I'm having LOTS of problems swallowing and eating is painful. After having had my strictures stretched with no improvement, her advice is to tough it out! Last Thursday she proscribed Carafate which is for ulcers and over the counter Pepcid. No improvement there either. So it's up to me to figure this out and that's one of the prime reasons I'm here. It's a great forum for research and I've sent the link to Ron Permenter, the clinic nurse. I plan on attending the next group meeting which is the 3rd Tuesday of each month. I hope to get some information from the other folks.

    Thanks for sharing and I hope to hear more from you.

    Hello. I am from Ms. also(Magee). I just wanted to tell you that I agree with you about River Oaks hospital. I was in there for 5 days a few weeks ago. It was a very bad experience. I had my RNY at CMMC over three years ago. Dr. Cleveland was my doctor but he has retired so when I started haveing problems I went to River Oaks because that is where all the docs from CMMC went. Anyway enough about me. How are you doing? It is nice to have you join us. Please stick around it is a really good site. Good luck on your journey. Looks like you are doing well. I am Dixie by the way.
