  1. Right!! Well I’m going to get a chest X-ray today and make sure everything is all cleared for surgery. This lung stuff came up after the fact. Which has made me anxious. I’m thankful I didn’t go under and did not know I had issues. ??
  2. That’s great !!!! Well good luck with everything !!
  3. Ok. Thank you !!! Is your sleep apnea better since surgery ?
  4. Well I have moderate to severe sleep apnea. CPAP has been ordered. I hope that’s won’t affect my surgery.
  5. Hello All, just wondering if anyone had to get a pulmonary clearance from your doctor prior to surgery ?
  6. @Heatherv2 well yesterday was a really good day to my suprise!!! I wish you luck. I won’t find out my date until tomorrow. I am super anxious about the entire process. ?
  7. What is VLCD? Today should be better.
  8. I started mine on Saturday and it has been a struggle. I was thinking start it on the wknd while off work. At this point I don’t think it would have mattered. I’m up already. It’s 5:41 am and I’m already praying I can get it right today. I don’t want to cause any problems with surgery but this is cold turkey!! LOL
  9. don't worry about people. you will never make them happy only be concerned with you and what you want. i chose not to tell people on my job nor in my family except husband, son , sister and mother because people are so negative. if this is what you want think of yourself and your health. goog luck!!!!!!
  10. i don't think it is flipped. I was banded in Feb and i still fill my port really really good. I an lean against the kitchen counter and it is very noticeable. it feels really weird. i hear that is normal and that it will take a while. so i am playing the waiting game too.
  11. Hello there, I am new to this site a lady I met today told me about it and I love it much better than other sites they argue too much and I need information not manage a boxing match. Well, I myself feel like you do. I am very anxious about being put to sleep. Hey, imagine this I work in healthcare. Well, it ain't working for me right now. I had surgery about 12 yrs ago and I was in so much pain at that time I really don't think I remembered being scared or anything else. My surgery is this Wed 2/20 and I am so excited and scared all rolled into one. Good luck with yours!!!!
