Surgery tomorrow! Kinda scared, as well as hungry!

Holy crap! Surgeons office just called and moved me up a week! Surgery on Monday the 8th! Pre op tomorrow!

I'm confirmed for Feb 15th! Pre op on the 11th.

Hi Oma letting go! I'm 63 as well, it's nice to see someone my age! My date is either 8 or 15 Feb. good luck with your surgery and please let us know how it goes!

Congrats to you pammy! That was a quick turnaround!

Thanks everyone!

Thanks, onthefence! I'm most worried about complications!

It was three days once they received everything.

I'm either the 8th or 15th! Find out Monday.

Will find out my date on Monday, either February 8 or 15. Very excited and nervous!!

I'm tentatively scheduled for Feb 15, if insurance approval comes through!

Hi, I had my ekg and echocardiogram two weeks ago. I have left ventricle Hypertrophy which is a thickening of the left ventricle. They said it was common with obesity and my case was mild. I can still have surgery.

Living in eastern NC, surgery will be in Wilmington

Good news! Just talked to the surgeons office and I'm okay for surgery!

Thank you so much for responding!

I don't know, I just saw the write up from the cardiologist in my online chart this morning. I will call on Monday. Hope it's not a problem.

Hi everyone, I'm pre-op and yesterday I had an EKG and an echocardiogram. I was diagnosed with Left Ventral Hypertrophy, which I've never heard of, so, of course I googled it. It looks like it is fairly common in bariatric patients, but still sounds scary. Has anyone had any experience with this?

Yes, I've had my first appointment with Miles Surgical in Wilmington.
