Bummed... But I Shouldn't Be :(



Recommended Posts

My Dr. Office called today to reschedule my surgery... pushed back a week to 2/20. After the past year of jumping through hoops, it is less then a month away, so I should still be happy...right?

:) (<---that is my fake smile.)

I can only imagine your disappointment. I will fake smile with you and pray that time speeds along. Don't dwell on what could have been, dwell on what you are going to make happen with your new sleeve.

Feeling you are going to rock your sleeve! Hugs to you.

My surgery is scheduled for the 6th- and seriously, I would be a hot mess if they called to push it back! I'm so sorry!

Hey it's ok... that's very frustrating!! :angry:

That said, it is less than a month away. Time flies super fast - I mean I'm working on my 17th month sleeved now! Sure doesn't feel like it. Your day will be here soon. Xox

Thanks Ladies! I am coming to terms with it. Lol! An extra week to prepare I suppose... and my kids want to hang out at the hospital while I am 'under the knife' so they can now since it is a school holiday. Thanks again for your kind words. It is very appreciated!

:) (<--- that's a real smile!)

any setback is disappointing - you psyche yourself up for a certain goal and then it feels like someone pulls a rug out from under your feet - but it WILL happen. Trust me. Take it from someone that has had several surgery dates only to have something happen through no fault of my own and have my surgery CANCELLED. A week more to get yourself ready - not so bad. I'm now sleeved and so very relieved and happy :)

That is hard, but sounds like it will be okay! Look at all those 20's and 2's in your new date...good strong date. :-) Mine was 10-22-10 and for some odd reason I really like the date!

      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!

        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!!
