I have been going through all the requirements for months and last week I got the okay from my insurance company and received a surgery date from my surgeon. So many emotions and feelings. Excited, anxious, frightened, happy, sad and all while being confident in my decision. Im not afraid of the discomfort or hard work ahead, but terrified of the worst case scenario's they keep telling me. Im a mother of two small children (2 and 4) and am so worried. I know everyone feels this way, but I don't want to back out from fear. Anyone else feeling like that or having surgery in July like me??? Would love to have some peeps to talk with along the way....

Good luck to all having surgery today! I pray you all have a great experience and recover soon!

Me too! Gotta be there 5:30 and its at 7:15!

Tomorrow, 10:30. Ready to go!

July 7th is my surgery date. At this point, the pre-op diet has left me exhausted. But it's worth the effort in the end.

Wow lots of you tomorrow! Good luck to you all!

Good luck to everyone who is getting their surgery done today and tomorrow it's an exciting feeling I can't wait till my turn

Glad to hear someone else is exhausted...I have no energy and I feel like I'm getting a cold

Hey guys,

had my surgery yesterday. Surgery was at 7:15 i was discharged to go home at two. Did have lots of gas pain and nausea. Don't know which was worse probably nausea. Took some phengren at home and wanted to throw up but jut kept swallowing and everything stayed down. Drinking everything is a breeze! Everything stays down fine! Im so happy! Walking really does help! as much as you want to lay down if you walk I promise it heals you. I was feeling pretty bad all day but by 8 I was feeling great because of all the walking. Today I am feeling super! Only pain is from the incisions and i am taking percocet for that and it is managing well. Taking vitamins and pepcid starting today and it is fine! ALready drank a protein drink this morning and is also tolerated well! Do not fret you guys you can and will do this! Prayers and well wishes for all! XOXO
