Feeling Sorry For Myself- I Admit It



Recommended Posts

Gah! I was up at 4 today and then couldn't fall back to sleep- thinking about tomorrows surgery. Today work is getting the best of my (I have a very low tolerance for ignorance and arrogance). I just want to crash now- sooooo weepy :-'( ????????

**sigh** I KNOW hope is right around the corner.

What is your biggest fear from the surgery? I am scheduled the 20th of September...I am anxious & nervous at the same time. I am scared of the anethesia & pain afterwards but....Look forward to the future when I can actually do things again!!

I felt all those same feelings. I am 4 weeks post op tomorrow and NO REGRETS. Its normal to feel sad, anxious nervous all at the same time but it really is a new beginning. The OR nurse told me I was the calmest patient she had ever seen, I told her because today is a do over day, you dont get many of those in life and this is mine. Yes, you will have some pain, its bearable. Get up and walk, its the best thing and after a couple of days you will feel so much better. good luck tomorrow JUSTINE13 and sending prayers your way.

Thank you everyone for your support. You have no idea what that means to me. Seriously- I acknowledge I'm a basketcase and it's not about after surgery- its all the prep and actually walking in if you can believe that. Then IV etc- you get what I mean.

Appreciate you all!! xxxx

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
