Looking for a buddies



Recommended Posts

I am in my pre-op diet right now. And my surgery is scheduled for Jan 16th. I am in North Florda. Is there anyone who would like to be buddies and keep in touch?

I have a great support system ,but still have been struggling. The closer I get the more nervous and anxious I get. I have a bad problem of second guessing myself.

Been taking it one day at at time. It's a little hard with having to work nights. I've had to switch everything around. :/

I would love to join your buddy list. Don't worry about second guessing.

I had my surgery on the 17th of Dec, 2016 and even on the OT table while waiting for the doctor I was not too sure if I wanted to go ahead with the surgery or just get up and run away. I guess we all go through that because this is a lifestyle altering decision. The two top players that play with your mind are worry and anxiety. Don't let fear in. Keeping telling yourself why you are doing this surgery. Be strong!

I pray to God that he gives you lots and lots of strength before, during and after the surgery. All the very best :).

Thank you! My husband is usually the more positive of the two of us. Lol He keeps me from getting to negative. I appreciate any and all prayers. Do you have a FB or snapchat we can keep in touch. :)

        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!!
