Good luck. There's nothing scary about having your stomach removed, once surgery is over you won't even know it's gone until you realize you can only eat smaller normal size portions. It will be the best thing you could do for yourself. You're probably stressed and anxious now, all of that will pass. You'll be just fine. Good luck to you and your success!!

Well I have a surgery date of 2/27/17 but I just had an irregular EKG where Im having an abnormal heart beat. I havent noticed it at all, but they say its there. So I have to see a cardiologist on Monday. I hope this is not another hurdle I have to jump on my journey to try and be healthy...

Greetings from Asbury! just read through this thread, your story sounds a lot like mine. I backed out on my original date too (from home, not in he operating room, lol) but am back on track and scheduled for this Tuesday. I'm sure you'll be fine at the cardio- I had a similar issue but the doc said it was fine and the surgery would be the best thing I can do for my heart.

I will be waiting to here how things go Jersey. Please keep us posted. 1 year this month I had the sleeve done. I've lost 100 lbs passed my goal and feel better then I have in years. Jogging every day 4 miles, drink Water, eat Protein and fresh veggies, take my Vitamins and knowing I will keep it off. Feeling healthy is the BEST part, and feeling in control. Got rid of all fat clothes because a healthy ME is my top priority now. Good Luck I pray all works out for you and you can start this amazing journey.
Your Oklahoma support pal!!!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
