Surgery tomorrow and getting nervous



Recommended Posts

Well, this is it. My Plication surgery is tomorrow morning. I am so scared! My husband is a basket case. I hope I have the nerve to go through with it.

You will do fine!

I know is is scary though. I think I got about two hours sleep the night before. I was in the hotel room dry heaving all morning because of my nerves. I was so happy when they called and moved the surgery time up just so I could get it over with. One of the nurses told me that when I was coming out of the deep sleep, I was saying "Can't you just let me sleep a little longer." Ha Ha!

Keep us posted when you are feeling up to it.

Amy,

Good luck. It will be over before you know it, then you'll be on the road to recovery.

Wishing you an easy surgery and nice recovery. KUP

I've been there. It's totally normal to be nervous. I came close to backing out the Friday before surgery. So happy I didn't. All went well and it was over before I knew it. Thinking of you today and wishing you a speedy recovery.

Hi everyone! Just wanted to let you all know I came through surgery okay. They are managing my pain well, so it's not been too bad so far. I will write more later.

Thanks for everyone's good wishes! I really appreciate it.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
