  1. Got My Approval

    · carolp5167 · 01/07/2011 00:05

    Got my approval for the surgery but don't have a date yet- still going thru the tests- I have quit caffeine and wow the headaches suck- I started walking just trying to get into a little shape before surgery- This is a long process-but I know that it will be worth it - I have seen alot of blogs regarding smoking and I to am a smoker but my Dr knows and says that it is my decision and doesn't want me to give up everything all at once-I am trying to cut down though-
     
     

  2. Conflicting Answers

    · carolp5167 · 01/02/2011 16:51

    I have been on this site for a few days now and have talked to a few people and everyone has a diff story- My biggest concern is me being alone- Do I really need someone here or can I do this on my own- I should be having my surgery end of Jan God wiling... Should I start liquid diet soon- Have had only 1 visit with surgeon but been every place else- phych dr-pulmanologis-sleep clinic- and next week nutritionist. I watched a lap band surgery on U Tube which didn't seem to bother me-quite interesting.. Any help would be appreciated. Carol

    Just finished my visit with a pulmanologist and found that I have sleep apnea-need to go do a sleep study night at hospital before they can schedule my surgery- I am very nervous and excited all the time-I just want to get started but I am scared about the surgery and after- my husband won't be here so I will be alone and don't know if I need to hire someone to take care of me or not. Anyhhelp or advise would be greatly appreciated...
