Feel better.

This Junie is in the hospital,but I hope to come home soon. I was in for dehydration.

Sleeved June 9th - Ended up staying in the hospital 5 glorious nights. Had 2 seperate blood transfussions. I can't stomach any of that nasty Protein (and yes I have tried different brands). My Bariatric Advantage Vitamins get me sick. Really scared that I am not getting my nutrient requirements. I am still having left shoulder pain (especially in the a.m.).

I am hoping that I will have an upward turn soon. Glad everyone else did okay.

I hope so b/c I am having surgery tomorrow too and I feel the exact same way. Lots of Anxiety!!

Where are you having your surgery? I'm having mine in New Orleans. It's very hard saying goodbye to all the good food and drink indefinately. But getting healthy is first.

Is it normal to not be excited and consumed with worry before surgery? I have been a blubbering fool worried about all of the what "ifs" related to complications, even though I have an excellent surgeon and a designated 1A hospital. I am worried about the anastesia and of course the possibility of not returning home to my kid. Any words of encouragement?

June 9th. Good luck on your date tomorrow. Thoughts and prayers your way

Yay! We'll have twin sleeves! My date is June 8th as well!

Having my surgery in New Orleans. I am taking 7 days off work (I have a desk job).

Do you have a date yet? I think you will do fine; keep the possitive attitude. Look at it as a new beginning!

My surgery will be in Albuquerque, NM.... I just found out yesterday that they were going to offer it here - I was going to fly to Ft. Worth,Texas.... That's when it hit me-yesterday that this whole thing is going to happen- thus I got a little scared - like what am I doing - but I hear a lot of people ask that question prior to surgery!!

Where is your surgery? How much time are you taking off?

Good luck and prayers to you. I'll be joining you on June 9th. Keep me posted.

Hi,

I finish my counseling and pshyco-social visit June 27 - then they schedule surgery...... I'm a little scared - how are you doing?

Hi..thanks for the reply. Not nervous at all. I didn't have to go through counseling (self pay) so it has all been rather fast, which keeps me excited. Are you nervous? Where are you having your surgery?

Hi all,

I am new here. I just got my date for June 9th and I am wondering if anyone else is scheduled around the same time. If so and you would like a support buddy let me know.

This is my first post, but I have been reading all the wonderful information that you guys have made available. Very informative!!

Thanks.
