1St Surgeon Visit

By MrsGina

· 703 views

It took a while finding a surgeon who would do my surgery, I guess I'm a high risk. (Who would have thought). Lol

 

I am getting the sleeve, then hopefully a pancreas bypass. I have had many abdominal surgeries but this one I'm kinda looking forward to.

 

I was so thankful to find a doctor with a sence of humor, I told him all the problems I had and he just kept saying arggg. Then he looked at my scar and I told him there was mesh underneath, arggg again. Lol

 

The shrink you liver diet isn't so bad, but the lack of caffeen is giving me a headache, and an upset stomach adjusting to no carbs. I was surprised when it took a while for my sugar to come down to normal range, but I'm not normal is what my friends tell me. Lol

 

All for now, next appt in Mid October for psyche and weigh in.

    Best of luck, keep us posted. Is your surgeon qualified to handle the extra risks you describe?

    So far the pre diet is going well. Worried about getting surgery before the end of year. Can't afford co-pay and co-insurance all at once in the new year. Waiting on surgeons reply on what he can do to resolve this. Keep praying it all works out.

    Gave away all my big summer cloths, being positive no matter what.

    I'm planning on visiting all those resale cloths shops after surgery, not gonna spend too much money on cloths I will shrink out of. Lol

    Now I'm thinking of starting at Curves, there's one a block from my house. I'm motivated on diet but still not into exercise. I hope that comes soon, I know I need it but I guess I need a better attitude about it. Lord, please renew my mind!

    All for now, oh I almost forgot, my rings almost fell off my fingers. Only noticeable progress but progress all the same.

    Ok, done now.
