June Sleever's Compilation - Good Luck & Well Wishes



Recommended Posts

Oh June sleevers! I've had possibly the worse possible thing happen. The anesthesiologist could easily get me intimated. After multiple tries he succeeded but then administered steroids to reduce the swelling. This is unacceptable for this type of surgery so my procedure was cancelled. When I woke u they told me and I burst into tears. I'm now trying to either reschedule with my surgeon here, reschedule where he prefers to go and have the insurance pick up my 20%. Please pray for me. I feel like my whole world is shattered.

Giselle,

I am truly sorry you had to have this happen to you. As the others have posted on here to you, I'm glad that they did not continue and that you're okay! Know that you're in my prayers on this.

It will be better for you.

Eric

Giselle,

You're using Dr. Kim; did this happen at Forrest Park Medical Center?

Thank you all! You are the only ones who can truly understand how painful this is for me.

Dad, I'm using UHC's Center of Excellence in Decatur. It's the only UHC COE he goes to. I'm trying to get rescheduled with Dr. Kim at Forest Park and just pay 20%. He's not coming back to this facility until July and I don't want to come back at all. But let me say everyone here has treated me SO professionally and compassionately. But now I'm gun shy. And this hospital is an hour from my house, Forest Park is 15 min.

Oh Honey, I am so very sorry! What in the heck was that idiot thinking? He should have known better! What did your surgeon say? Is he willing to get you in ASAP at FP? What kind of hoops do you have to jump thru w/the insurance.

If you can get it taken care of at Forrest Park, closer to home, maybe it's a Blessing in disguise. We'll just hope for all the absolute best in this.

Lots of hugs. Keep us posted!!!

MamaM I agree this could end up being a blessing in disguise. I talked to my husband at length tonight and he fully supports me getting over to FP. Thanks to you and all my sleeve family for the encouragement and getting me through a very difficult day.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
