First words...

New here and just thought I would leave a word or two.

Today I am well on my way in the process of getting my VSG. I have completed all nutrition and Phyc. and Dr. visits and have had all the pre-op tests save for the EGD and Colonoscopy that are happening tomorrow and an abdominal ultrasound that's being done on the 11th.(gonna get another look at this umbilical hernia I have. Already had an Cat-Scan.) Final Surgical consult is on for the 14th and then I guess I'm on the list after that. Was told that they are trying to work me in for sometime around the end of January or the First part of Feb. YAY!

Excited,scared,anxious,happy....

Yeah,Got alot of emotions with it all, but for the most part I am well and pleased with all that's gone on so far and hopeful for all the rest that's coming.

The plan is to come here on a regular basis and gather more info and support.So far everything I have seen has been encouraging.I'm thinkin' I'm gonna be glad I found this place.Best wishes to all that stop by here. May your journies bring you peace.

:heart:

    Thanks TijuanaPlication and Smillzee for the kind words.

    It was nice to find them here for me. All the best to you both as well!

    Had my proceedures and save for the polyp biopsy that was needed,all went well.

    Biopsy = benign.YAY!

    Got my surgery date... Feb 25th. Feels strange to have that date to look at on the calender;

    good but strange.

    Anyway,all else is good so far. Started the pre-op diet and upped all my supplements. Yummy...Not!

    I can see that already this has been a long journey and it's only just beginning.

    That's alright though,......I Can DO This!

    Blessings to everyone
