Tomorrow's the day



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone!

Tomorrow morning is my big day. My surgery is scheduled for 7:30 a.m. and I am not even nervous, just excited. Although, I think my hubby is more than nervous enough for the both of us.

I just wanted to take a moment to post and say that although I have never met any of you, I am so thankful for each and everyone of you. I have learned more about the band, what to expect, how to handle different things that may happen, etc. from you wonderful people on this board than I am sure any doctor could have ever told me. It is through your support and advice that I am able to feel so confident in my decision to get banded. I only hope I can be as helpful to future bandsters as each of you have been to me.

Thank you so much. :grouphug:

Good luck Susan! You will be in band land before you know it.

just don't say silly things to your surgeon like I do - that is sooo embarassing :grouphug:

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
