Snafu

.

I originally posted this question several times. I am now 14 months out from when I had my surgery. Everything went great. I was scared by the first impression of the clinic but must say it was clean. They was never a minute I didn't see someone cleaning. You couldn't leave the restroom without someone going in behind you and cleaning it. I was treated extremely well and tended to often. I was lucky enough to be able to have my loved one stay with me the entire time except during surgery. I paid extra to have a private room where he could stay and I paid extra to be the first patient of the day. I have had no complications and weigh 135 today!! I love it and don't regret it one bit. I was the best and healthiest life change I have done for myself. I love the way I feel and the way I look. I am heathy and feel great. I can eat whatever I want but in moderation of course, meaning small meals. With that being said I felt a sigh of relief when I was home and felt like I got thru without any problems. If I had to do it over again I would do it exactly the same cause it all went perfect for me. However if I was taking a friend or loved one I would recommend having it done in a hospital just in case. It was scary and I feel lucky to have come thru without any complications. He did an excellent job.

Everything went great. Just super really thirsty and my throat hurts

Ok I need some help. My surgery is Tuesday and I started my liquid diet yesterday. Yesterday afternoon I started feeling like my heart was palpating. I'm not sure what it is or could be. I don't feel overly nervous but I wonder if this is just anxiety? Anyone else experience this?

Thanks so much Kathy. I am following all of it to the T!! 5 more days!

I will keep everyone posted for sure!

5 more days till my surgery day! It's coming so slow yet it will be here before I know it!

5 more days!!! I am still really excited and ready to do this!!

Thank you for sharing such a tragic time in your life with us. Such a beautiful girl. My heart breaks for her children and family. I am sorry for your loss. Stay strong for the little ones and keep that beautiful smile of hers alive by continuing to share memories of her with them.

Can anyone please tell me if Dr Almanza uses drains? And if so is that a common thing with other doctors?

I am going with Dr Almanza also. I am scheduled for January 14th. I have done a lot of research and feel he is the right choice for me.
