Surgery in three DayS!!



Recommended Posts

Good luck with your PCP, I told mine before surgery and he was super supportive, wanted to see me at 4 weeks. I went at 4 weeks, and the medical office had changed staff around, and my old PCP had left the practice, the new guy was an a$$ so, I had to search for another Dr. I also live in the boonies....

I did find one that was supportive and actually was so happy about it. She asked me for information on surgery so she could possibly pass on info for others who asked her about surgery.

I love it when Drs. are open to "new" procedures and to us taking charge of our bodies.

Good luck with your PCP.

joanie, thanks that is comforting. To be honest i do not know exactly if i'm getting the plication or not they just tole me gastric sleeve. My surgery is on a thursday and they are keeping me in the hospital until monday, because i live so far away. I hope they actually let me leave the hospital because if they keep me inside the whole time, i think i will go crazy. Well at least there is a mental hospital right there in the same building. Lol :)

Hi...thank you for answering me so soon..at least I dont feel so alone! I dont have a fever..just a littled chilled. Otherwise, I feel absolutely wonderful!! I have decided to make an appointment with my [primary care provider just to give her the 411 on the surgery..give her all of the info that I recieved so they understand from this point on that my body has changed. I am kind of nervous about that...I live in hickville not sure how accepting they will be about me flying to Mexico for surgery but oh well...lol..they really dont wanna mess with me hehe..

Thanks

K

Hi K. Glad you are home and feeling good. Going to see your doctor is a great idea. I live in hixville too, but when I spoke to my doctor about Mexico before I made my final decision to stay in The States, she was just fine with it. She did tell me to look them on some website that I can't remember and couldn't maneuver my way around. I think you had to be a member. Anyway, welcome home and to your new life.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
