Laying down I'm virtually painfree. Once I move and stand I have pain in my lower stomach if I clench and lift my lower belly I can walk with minimal pain. I'm only taking tylenol now because pain or not I have to drive tomorrow ...should be interesting..... -

Horizon NJ Health, 12 month wait?
Angelkeeper4 replied to Thick'n'Thin's topic in Insurance & Financing
I agree MsBailey. I have close to 200 to lose which is why I'm choosing bypass. On my preop diet now surgery in 9 days!!!! After waiting 13 years 9 days seems surreal -
Well I saw the Dr today and I'm having the IVC placed Thursday ...no meds except local numbing. Through the groin so I'm grateful for that. A little nervous but it gets me closer to the OR.
-
Thanks so much. As long as I'm asleep I don't really care.

December Surgery Date...Woohoo!
Angelkeeper4 replied to Lkk0158's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I felt the same way -
No. I was told the surgeon requires it for people with a BMI over 60. Mine is 60.22 lol. I see the vascular surgeon in office visit tomorrow so I guess I'll know more then.
-
I'm hoping for the groin.... the neck thing kinda freaks me out
-
I agree it's for the best. Made mistake looking at videos and of course most are not good experiences. Just another step toward the big day Thanks for replying.
-
I have to see the vascular surgeon tomorrow about getting an ivc filter placed.. my surgery is Dec 15 so I'm not sure when they will do it. I'm really nervous about it
-
I can't believe surgery is in two weeks after years of waiting wishing ...preop starts in the morning ...time to kick this sugar habit! Anyone else have Mid December surgery?
