Ugh!! That's the worst, isn't it? Nothing like waking up to that massive whole head burning sensation.

That's great... Thank you!

7 days?!? That seems sooo fast to me..lol. I hope I can go back that quickly! Thank you for giving me more hope...

That's awesome that you are back to work already. You must be doing really well with everything! Thanks so much!

Thanks! That makes me feel a little less nervous about it...

I have a hiatal hernia. I had my upper scope done and the Dr found it. He said he would repair it during my vsg surgery. Have any of you ever had this? I heard that it makes recovery a little more painful or difficult... just trying to hear from people who have lived it before me. Thanks in advance!!!

Just wanted to update you all... I had the scope done today. They found a hiatal hernia, which the Dr is going to fix whenever I get my sleeve done. We were originally shooting for a surgery date of October 15th, but it looks like it will be later than that now... :-/ Anyone ever have a hernia repair at the same time as the sleeve?

No fever, as of yet...I hope I don't get one. Thank you!

Thanks for answering... I hope so. I don't want anything to delay me finally getting sleeved...lol.

Bumping...

So, I have an upper GI scope scheduled for tomorrow morning. My Dr. scheduled it because I have really bad reflux. He wants to make sure I don't have any issues that would prevent me from having the sleeve done. So...to get to the point... I woke up with (what I think is) a sinus infection or maybe just horrible allergies... I am not fevered, as of right now. Do you think they will still do the scope? I know only the hospital/dr office will know for sure, but there isn't anyone in until tomorrow for me to ask. So, I figured I would ask you all.... *fingers crossed*

You look sooo different! I'm so happy for you... Congratulations!

You look so much healthier! It's crazy that you are only 2 weeks post op and you lost 50 lbs already .. Keep on keeping on...

Congratulations!!! I had to move my appt because of scheduling conflicts... I'm looking at late September now. Best of luck!!! Let us know how it goes!!!

You look amazing! Congratulations on your weight loss and good luck on your journey.

That sounds awesome! Good luck with the experiments!

I'm glad you finally got to go!!! That must've been uncomfortable. I'm still pre op, so I haven't been through this stuff yet... :/ lol

I haven't even had my surgery yet, but that sounds like a really good idea. Idk how you could do that unless you used clear unflavored gelatin and used broth instead of water. Oh, or maybe you could make some broth-sicles, lol. You can get a set to make them at most dollar stores or Walmart.

I don't have any kidney issues that I know of... but, that's awesome for everyone who it applies to!!!

I'm sorry you had so much pain.. But, I'm glad they finally got it under control. Congrats on the surgery!! Happy healing vibes coming your way!!

Good luck!!!

No advice, but I wanted to wish you luck!! Good luck!!!
