How is everyone doing? When are yall starting your liquid diet?

I haven't started my liquid diet, yet. I have my pre-op seminar/workshop on Tues (05/13)

And then my final clearance/decision day with the doctor on 05/16. I will check back in to let everyone know if everything is a final go. I started a discussion in regards to an abnormal ecg. All of my other tests came back alright. So I am nervous about the ecg. So we will see. Come on June 3

Since a few of us are from the Chicago area and are having surgery around the same time, would anybody be interested in a Chicago area meet up?

Alex76, I think this is a lovely idea. I am in the southern suburbs but would love to meet others who are going through the journey. My date is June 3rd. Keep us posted if you want to meet up.

Good Evening Ladies,

‘I am new to the WLS forum. After 6 months or so, I have finally received my surgery date which is June 3. I have been trying to make my mind up for about 8 years and am ready to get this thing done. I’ve had all the tests completed and everything was fine except for an abnormal ecg. When I visit my doctor on the 13th for the final clearance, I am crossing my fingers everything will come out ok. So if you don’t mind another June surgery buddy...... I would love to tag along. Btw, I love the pumpkins too..😃

49Nash,

I sure hope so. I will keep everyone posted... All of the other tests have come back and everything is ok.

I am going to start following you if you don't mind.

Fitbit??!!! I got mines in August of 2018. It was instrumental in my journey to WLS. I monitor my heart rate and step count on a daily basis. I will keep you posted after my next visit to the doctor on 05/16. Hopefully he will give me the all clear. So I am keeping my fingers crossed............

Gabybab,

I hope so too. I have to come so far and don't want to let anything stand in my way. I have done some research and hopefully it will be all cleared up before 06/03. Maybe I can redo the ecg. Anyways, I will keep you/everyone posted. I see you had the sleeve procedure. Any words of wisdom?

Good Evening,

I am well on my road to WLS.

However, I get the results back from my pre-op tests and the only negative that came back was my ecg.

It said it was abnormal. 😥 I just want to know if this is going to holdup or even cancel my surgery at all.

I have been thinking about having WLS for at least 8 years. Now I have come so far only to possibly be setback forever.

Has anyone had this happen to them? If so, what was/were the outcome.

Your knowledge is greatly appreciated. My surgery is scheduled for 06/03/19.

Thanks in Advance (Sigh)😨
