Congratulations -- Dr. Aceves is AWESOME! Had my surgery on June 12 and DF is having his tomorrow - 7/11

Btw, what does "DF" stand for? I know your fiance is the Bearded Italian, but I can't for the life of me figure out "DF". :biggrin0:

Congratulations! I know you're happy about having a date - the time will pass so fast you'll wonder where it went.

Just checking in to see if a name was decided on yet.

I got my pre-op date (finally), July 28th. I should know that date what my surgery date will be but it is almost for sure in August.

I am excited but having a little cold feet now. Am I doing the right thing? How do I know? Those kind of thoughts. I am sure all those who actually have their date feel the same way.

Hi KMB,

I'm having my sleeve on Aug 18th by Dr Solomon from the South Bay Surgeon group. Who is your doctor? It's hard to find someone who even does the surgery, it's so new comparatively speaking. but I really feel comfortable with my decision to go with the sleeve. I hope I am right.....

I can't wait tosee how we do....! good luck!!!

Ok I am a real August sleever. Not too many of us that post it seems.

August 26th!

Yeah! Congrats on your date. We August folks have been pretty quiet lately. For me, I think its the pre-op diet. Too tired to type. Only 5 days to go, on the downhill side, so I am getting back some energy.:thumbup:

We aren't heading back down until October - that will be 3 months for Bearded and 3 months from when I had my last GI.

        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!!
