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.

      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!!
