Status on my whereabouts!



Recommended Posts

Hi all, I just want to let EVERYONE here know that during the snow storm here in the North East, the power went off and on a few times in a row and my desk top computer crashed! I'm at my mother's house now using her PC to write this. Anyway I had to get on the phone with HP and troubleshoot and my files were wiped out so I'm waiting on the mail to deliver recover CD's and then I'll get back on the phone with HP and have them walk me through the steps to "restore" the computer to its original factory settings. I'm so pissed because I want to keep up with you all. To those of you who have recently had your surger God bless and keep you. To those of you about to I wish you all the best. Your all in my thoughts and prayers. I can still access this website from my cell phone but it's slow and a pain in the butt!

Stay toasty warm, and I hope that CD gets to you quickly. I'm not a fan of the web phone version of VST even on my IPhone it sucks so I know how frustrating it is.

Hang in there, we're all thinking of you.

Don't get too chilly out there on the East Coast, LAN, and I hope your depression and anxiety are getting better! Best to you! :001_rolleyes:

I'm so sorry not to have come here straight away after getting myself this little netbook while I'm waiting for my computer to be delivered. The power outage killed the hard drive apparently my surge protector doesn't have more than a years worth of power! So since I haven't had a working lap-top since 2001 I purched this little netbook. Alas I'm able to communicate with this message board, apart from few friends and my family this has been a source of support...thank God and thank you all for your encouragement and kind words of support. xxxxxxxxxxooooooooooooooo I really do hope we all will thrive in good health, physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally. God bless.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
