      I'm holding up the best that I think I can. literally taking it hour by hour. This morning I was a little emotional - sad scared lonely and hungry lol - but now I am fine. First day home by myself and I got through it. Kept track of everything I put in my mouth and working it out to a science I guess. Than you for asking - it's good to vent a little :0)

  4. so upset apparently i have to wait for 2 other people to be approved to get a dang surgery date :( they only do groups of 3... couldnt get an estimated time frame or anything im extremely upset... i thought i was doing the surgury for me so why do i need to wait on others when ive completed what i need to do on my own....

      I'm sorry. If your insurance approval is going to expire, I would follow your mentors advice or check on another surgeon. Just stay positive.

      yeah i am trying to just hard.... i will not fall back on food tho during this... typically would of rummaged threw the fridge by now but im learing self controll when bad things happen have to try to make it a positive but yes i will be looking into another surgeon ... as far as i know we only have 2 in this area... thanks for the support :)

      pupichupi

      pinky, it's good that your staying strong through this and not binge eating, it shows you will do good after the surgery. I really think finding a new surgeon would be good, call your insurance company and explain what is going on and they may be able to help you too find someone in your area that does it. That or they could call that doctors office and be like look give this girl a date or we will pull back on payments to your office? Cover your butt cause you have pushed through to g...

  7. Just a short note for those inquiring why I hurt & am on pain meds...IT IS PART GROWING OLDER & PART HEREDITY. I have cervical stenosis & will be having 3-4 of my neck vertebrae fused in the next few months. Causes severe pain/numbness in neck & arms & migraine headaches. Also just found out this week I have spondylosis in my lumbar spine which is how the neck started. VERY FRUSTRATING to not be able to do much of anything. Just this is bring tears to my eyes. BUT it could be MUCH worse,...

      Miss Mac

      Just a word of encouragement about your cervical spine.......I had a 4 level ACDF on 2/14/2013. The collar was inconvenient for six weeks, but all of the numbness and pain stoped immediately. I am so glad I had it done. I get lumbar epidural injections every 3-4 months from the pain clinic at the hospital. The spine surgeon wants to put off surgery as long as possible because he and my primary and the pain specialist all believe that losing weight will ease that problem. The general conse...

      Same thing happened to me after my 2nd fill, and that was when I hit the green zone. Just gradually start eating regular foods and take it slow!

      Stay away from restaurants, fast foods, etc, try to stay away from your kitchen as much as possible. Remember it's two weeks and it should go by fast. Drink lots of water. Keep yourself busy. If u are really struggling , go take a bubble bath and listen to soothing music. Remember "This too shall pass ". Blog us if u need support ..we r here to help.

      Carlotta1, thanks for the encouragement!! I'm staying out of my kitchen as much as I can and no restaurants for this lady. In fact, my super supportive husband is taking the kids out to eat for these 2 weeks just so I won't have to smell food cooking.....he's the best :)
