Need Some Help
I'm 6 days out and I keep getting these feeling of it feels like indigestion in midsection like I've swallowed something too big although I'm only on liquids. Is this a form of gas or reflux (can you get reflux from liquids). I've only been having popsciles broth water and apple juice. It happens about 10 times an hour just a passing of about 3 seconds of pain in my middle, not my back or sides. Is anyone familiar with this feeling? Any advice?

Coordinaters Who Talk Smack..
Please know that coordinators are a form of sales representatives and they get paid based on the revenue they create. The coordinators ethics should be questioned not necessarily the Dr himself. Research, research, research. Do not be swayed by hearsay. They talked badly about Jesus and he traveled about doing good for 33 years. Not comparing Dr Kelly to C.J. but saying the premise is the same. Peace and blessings to all

Don't Judge Me (A Scenario)
So as I relax this Friday evening 3 weeks pre op with a crystal light mocktail in one hand, cell phone in the other, I wonder. How would marijuana affect my sleeve? Am I eternally banded from medicinal use of Mary (for my cateracs of course!) Any thoughts?
-
Louise Johnson @ Jerusalem Hospital?!
Why was I just informed that Louise is no longer with the hospital. This has caused upset because its already risky going out of country to have a surgery but when the coordinator or liaison you've been working with and gained trust in disappears from the company immediately before you surgery you might just freak out as if you didn't have enough to think about. Ughhh. Trying to keep calm and praying this isn't an sign from God to reconsider. This is the worst possible timing 30 days till I'm to be sleeved...any thoughts?

Hi all. So I'm doing my sleep study tonight and start my pre open diet next week, but today I had a massive uncontrollable crying fit feeling like I'd brought all this on myself. It could've been avoided and I didn't work hard enough. Anyone else felt pre surgery guilt?

Should All Pre-Oppers Get A Sleep Study Done?
Honestly at first I was going to ignore the sleep apnea suspicion I had since I'm a self pay and it wasn't urged by the Dr doing my surgery, after talking to my bestie who had the bypass a year ago about people having deaths after surgery because this illness wasn't addressed. Take every precaution with your life. I have a study scheduled next Wednesday.

Sleep Apnea Anyone?!
