Anyother November 2013 bansters?



Recommended Posts

Hello!

I was suppose to be a September bandster, but was denied by my Ins because of a 1.8lb gain. :(

I am currently jumping through more hoops. I have two more weigh ins and hope I get approved this time and will get banded November 14!

Hi. New here to the forum. I am scheduled for surgery on Nov. 15th. I still have to have pre admission pulmonary testing. I have that next week. I just had my cardiac testing and received clearance on that. Nervous and excited at the same time. I will be looking through the board topics for advice!

I haven't gotten any instructions on a pre-op diet! When I called today and got my surgery moved up a week they asked if I received the surgery information packet, which I have not. Maybe it's in the mail and my pre-op diet instructions are in it.....

      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!!
