My Big Day is TOMORROW 8-9-11



Recommended Posts

I just got off the phone with scheduling from the hospital and my sleeve is scheduled for 6:00 AM tomorrow! I cannot believe it is here. I am feeling really excited and can't wait til it is over. I have a really good feeling about it and want to keep this positive attitude going into surgery and coming out. I just hope nothing changes it. The nervousness has not come yet but I am sure it will as tonight approaches and especially the morning hours. I will let you guys know how I make out. Please keep me in your prayers and thank all of you for your support and encouraging words, they mean more than you know!

How exciting!!! I am happy for you. I have my psych evaluation this week. I am hoping to be scheduled for the end of September. Good luck with everything. Be sure to post afterwards so we all can hear how it went. :D

You keep that positive attitude. You are going to do great. I am 13 days out and doing very well. Walking is SO important and makes you feel better.

Wishing you all the best!

Good luck Shell! I'll only be a few hours behind you in getting my own sleeve today. I pray we both do well. I have to be at the hospital at 8:45, and my surgery is scheduled for 10:45. I'm supposed to be in the hospital until Thursday. It's hard to believe the day has finally arrived.

I better go get some sleep now. I went to bed early but woke up at midnight. It's 2:30 a.m. now, so back to bed for a few hours.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
