SOOOOOO sorry to hear that! I am supposed to have surgery Tuesday and I've had this weird feeling that something will prevent me from having it. I can only imagine how that would feel. Hopefully you'll be feeling great in the morning or the doc will squeeze you in soon or something will go your way!!! Best of luck to you!!!

Thanks all for the inspiration, I ended up having emergency surgery last night for a 10mm kidney stone blocking my urinary tract and that's where the fever came from. I guess it was a blessing in disguise to find this now and not after sleeve surgery. Doc cancelled the surgery of course. In the hospital now recovering...

I am sitting here literally in tears right now. My surgery is set for tomorrow June 6th at 10:15 am. I woke up last night with a fever and chills, temp 102.3. I am pretty sure the surgery wont continue and my doctor is booked up for months. My journey started a long time ago and required another surgery before this one was to happen. I have worked my ass off for this day and now this. All the hoops and twists and turns, I am just so upset. I know i dont want to be sick before surgery of this type but im just a mess right now. Anyone else had this to happen to them?

Prayers for a quick recovery. It was definitely a blessing in disguise and that sounds incredibly painful. I hope your surgeon is able to work you in soon.

*hugs*

WOW! 10 mm?!? So sorry about that, but you are right, better to find it now than right after VSG surgery. Recovery is tough enough without the pain and fever, etc. that go along with a kidney stone.

I hope you have a quick recovery and they can get you in for your VSG very soon. Keep us updated when you feel like itsmile.gif

Ok, finally back home after 5 days in the hospital. Wow that was so much fun..pardon my excitement. As I stated before, they found 3 kidney stones 10mm by 9mm was the biggest, 8mm and 5 I believe. My kidney function started declining the day after they admitted me thats why I ended up staying so long. They gave me an antibiotic called Zosyn, which apparently unknown by me I was allergic to and had a reaction to it (kidneys started to not work anymore) They finally figured it out and put me on something else, fever went away and I had removal surgery Thursday morning and she got them all. All thats left is to go back Tuesday and get the kidney stent removed and im back on my way. Meet with sleeve doc(dr david kim dallas area) on June 22 to reschedule....They cant pay me enough to give up my fight...I will get sleeved one way or the other damnit!!! lol

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
