  1. Hi curlysue86! I had an endoscopy 2 weeks ago and the surgeon dilated or stretched my esophagus. The surgeon that's doing my sleeve said it's common and I may need it done after my sleeve as well. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using the BariatricPal App
  2. I'm 7/27, but close enough! My EKG came back as "borderline" so I will be having a second one later on this week. Not sure what this means, but hoping its nothing... Doctor didn't seem too concerned so trying not to focus on it! Seems like I'm one of the few that doesn't have a liquid diet pre-op. Starting this Wednesday I will be on a week of low/no carbs. and drinking a box of Impact Recovery drink a day. I need to keep reminding myself that while this is major surgery, the complication rate is VERY low. I have anxiety and my mind is playing tricks on me. Scared I'm going to die under anesthesia.... I'm not thrilled about anesthesia either! I talked to the nurse and she said I'll get something to relax me put in the iv so I won't panic in the operating room.

  3. I'm stressed because my blood sugar has been high...300. I'm now on Humalog and Victoza. Anyone else having trouble? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using the BariatricPal App
  4. Hi! I'm having the sleeve on 7/26 in Indiana. Good luck to everyone! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using the BariatricPal App
