Congratulations, Dooter. I'll be finishing my cardiac clearance on Tuesday. The cardiologist wants to put me through a stress test before he give me final clearance. At least my EKG looked good. He just didn't like my family history. I still have to finish my psych eval and my gallstone check.

Thanks! Eeeewie stress test. Had one of those years ago. Me no likie. I get to skip the gallbladder part. My gallbladder will not be in attendance. HOpe all goes well!

Hey Malyss - I had a stress test, too. No big woop. The weird thing was that my doc requested I not go on the treadmill because of my knee pain (even though I go on it at the gym, but...whatever). So they put in an IV and shot me full of adrenalin stuff to cause my heart to start beating fast as if I was exercising. SO WEIRD FEELING! It only lasted a few minutes, but it was quite strange. All's well that ends well - I got clearance after that. So hang in there, Malyss - you'll get there!

Congrats, Dooter on your clearance.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
