  1. Me too Brother!! My surgery is July 10th, I have my EDG on Jusy 5th! And I swear if I get that close and they have to push it back, I will freak out!!!

    I get my result back today for the breath test. I am praying my surgery is not pushed back.


  2. Okay I took my breath test for h.pylori and I won't find out if I am having surgery until the day of surgery. I am so bummed out. I can't wait anoher 2 or 3 weeks for surgery. However, I think it is harder waiting until the day before surgery to find out if it will happened. What symptoms if any did anyone have after taking the liquid and breath test for h.pylori?


  3. I have to blow in a bag to assure the doctor I don't have stomach bacteria. I already took a Upper GI Endoscopy and the doctor said everything is perfect. However, the test results which finalize the test will take 7 to 10 days. My blood results were inconclusive, which mean the numbers were not low enough to tell I didn't have stomach bacteria and not high enough to show I had stomach bacteria. Today I have an appointment to get clearance for surgery and then I have to go back to the doctor to blow in a bag. This is nerve racking. ughhh! I will know something in a few hours.

  5. Hello I am a teacher and my date is July 2nd. I am hoping to be past the soft foods stage and on regular foods by the time school resumes. I started pre-op on yesterday and today I fell off the wagon. I guess I better get back on tomorrow with a vengence. I pray to make it through this stage and onto to the next one!

    I hoping the same thing. However, if it doesn't work out I am just going to say I am on a liquid diet to lose some weight. It will be so busy when school starts a Protein Shake will help me to eat better anyway. This pre-op diet is hard, hard , hard. I use to be more focus , What happened to my will power. LOl


  6. I'm also a teacher and here in this part of the world we are finishing on June 28th. 4 more school days! I have a few days to prepare and then surgery on the 2nd! It is good we have the holidays as recovery time, and good to "meet" up with you lot :-)
