kbee88 got a reaction from Miss215 in VSG + Hiatal Hernia Repair
I went in for my vsg and they found I had hiatal hernia. So they fixed it while they were already in there. The pain wasn’t bad. Had about 2 days of pain meds (mainly at night). What was the worse for me was when I was trying to swallow during the first part of my recovery. If I had a little to much at one time my chest would hurt from where they stitched the hernia. I still have to be careful with how much I swallow at once but it’s definitely not as bad as when I got my surgery done.

kbee88 got a reaction from biginjapan in So reassure me I won’t be bald forever
A couple months after my surgery I had the same thing happen. It was falling out like crazy. Thankfully it slowed down to normal Hair loss and I’m starting to get some regrowth. I’m waiting to cut my hair until I have some length on the regrowth (right now I’m just trying to hide the regrowth because it looks like fly aways). Right now my hair stylist and I are treating them very carefully and making sure to give it as much love as possible. I’m making sure to take all my prescribed supplements and get as much Protein as I can.

kbee88 got a reaction from FluffyChix in Travel during purée stage
I’m about to start my purée stage of my recovery and I have to go out of town for work all next week. I’m going to be taking some things and my measuring cups. Any ideas on hotel living (I’ll have access to a mini fridge and microwave) and/or out to eat ideas for food during the purée stage??

kbee88 got a reaction from ARMoma45 in Medication
I actually just picked up my medications for surgery next week and called my surgery nurse to make sure it was correct since one is a capsule and one is a small tablet. She said we can take pills if they are as small as a pens cap and then the capsule she said to open and put on applesauce or something. The bottles didn’t say that though. So if you have questions on it I would call your nurse or surgeon.

kbee88 got a reaction from MeowAMR in Finally got my surgery date... when did you cut things out?
I just got my surgery date today and I’m scheduled the same day as you! While I’ve been going through the approval process I started to cut back and will start cutting it out altogether when I start my month long pre op diet.

kbee88 got a reaction from ARMoma45 in Pre surgery 6 mth required diet
Depends on your insurance. Mine required 6 months with my PCP. We have certain paperwork we had to fill out each visit that my surgeon had given me. Your 2 previous month should usually work if they was no break between the visits. I would call your insurance.
