Mines 8/31/16 and I'm excited but so nervous with all the different postings. I just have to take the negatives out of my head and pray. I just don't want any complications. Pain I can handle

@@myfatisnotaflaw I can relate to all that said. My date for surgery is 8/31/16. All the best. Keep us posted

@@Dub did you tell your surgeon About your abdominal hernia before surgery? I'm having groin pain and thinks it's a hernia

@@tracii62 my surgeon told me to discontinue taking prednisone for my knee pain as it will affect my healing process. My sleeve is on 8/31/16

@traccii62 I take prednisone for arthritis knee pain and my surgeon told me to stop taking it as it will affect my healing process. My surgery date is 8/31/16.

@@Jasminkw I know you must be disappointed but all things work together for the good. Mine is 8/31/16 and I am already dreading the preopdiet. Good luck and hang in there. We have come too far!

Keeping my fingers crossed. Submitting to insurance July so hopefully I should be going in for surgery in August. Can't wait!

@@MrsKTS so happy for you. Feel inspired. Keep up the good work. I just have my endoscopy last and then I go for clearance.

@@Dub thx for the encouraging words. Can't wait to get my sleeve done. Been suffering to long with knee and back pain

@@Dub thx for the encouraging words. I'm excited to get my sleeve over with. My sufferings has been too much with knee n back pain

@@KLat I myself suffer with knee and back pain and I can't wait to do my sleeve. I cry night n day with pain and nothing helps. Hope we will overcome!

If you survived c-section, you will do fine with the sleeve.

Premier Protein is the best. Can be purchased by the case at Costco or BJs. Strawberry, vanilla and chocolate favors. GREAT TASTING!!!

@@Christinamo7 will up my protein intake this week. Thx for advice

@@reree6898 thx for your advice. I am so looking forward to a relief. Can't suffer any longer. Will certainly update. Thx @@bellabill

@@Kindle oh I can't wait! Thx everyone. Will continue to share my journey @@2goldengirl and @@hopeful one

@@fernandfj thx for sharing your experience. It's helpful

@@bellabill good luck with the surgery and thx for the insight

Fernandfj thanks. At least there is hope. I have excruciating pains and can't wait to get relief

Has anyone experienced knee pain relief from the sleeve surgery. My ortho doctor suggest for me to do WLS first before knee surgery (if necessary). Said it was risky with my weight so he suggested bariatric surgery as he thinks it will help with my weight and knee pain. HELP!!!

NY area. My MDs are very thorough. I have HTN and my BMI is high so they just want to make sure I am well enough to do the sleeve. So far so good. I don't mind the process.

Carlissa glad to see ur quick progress. I am going through my hoops too. Did cardio, pulmonary, labs, psych, nuts,sleep study (which I have to repeat cos I didn't sleep a wink in the lab). . Last is my endo and colonoscopy. I will keep u posted as we share our journey.

good luck. having my consult aug 19th did initial bloodwork i also have high bp, very concerned about the post surgery feelings. take good care of yourselves,

I can feel ur anxiety n mixed feelings. I am preparing too. All should be well with you. Good luck!
