I was suppose to have the gastric sleeve on 8/13 unfortunately two days before I had to start an antibiotic for a severe sinus infection and they cancelled my surgery :-( I now have a date for 9/9 and I'm hoping nothing else comes up! Please note they will not do surgery if you are sick!!! The waiting is horrible. Has anyone else experienced postponing?? It stinks!

I had to cancel my seminar (first step) because my "friend" backed out on me at the last minute from watching my kids for me. The seminar is 3 hours long and now I have to wait a whole month before going to the next one. I feel your pain and it SUCKS!!!

I'm so sorry! How disappointing that would be. Let's hope that you get your surgery soon and no more setbacks.

I feel your pain. Last year I was a week into my pre-op diet a week away from surgery when a storm came through and did a bunch of damage to our house. I was self pay at the time so I had to back out so we could afford the repairs. Then when I thought I was back on track and ready to schedule my consult, my Mom was diagnosed with cancer and needed financial help. She's on track with chemo and finances, so now I'm waiting for the 13th of October through insurance. You'll get there soon enough! Hope you feel better here soon. Good luck with your surgery.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
