Any One Is San Diego?



Recommended Posts

Hey Everyone!

Just wondering if there are any other San Diego Sleevers out there? I am a few days away from surgery! I have surgery on Sept 14th. Very excited but would love to meet some people in my city that have had it or are about to! :rolleyes:

Good luck with your surgery, Carly! Where will you be having it done? I was sleeved last week at UCSD.

I'm doing well! No complications thus far, and minimal pain. I was in the hospital two nights, mainly because I had nausea (but no vomiting, thankfully!) the first two days. I'm feeling much better now--just somewhat tired. Please feel free to message me with any questions or just to say hi. =)

Hi everyone! I'm glad to see chat with people from SD. I'm a newbie and just started my 6 month weight loss program (HMR) two months in four to go and everything is pending once I finish. I also plan to have my surgery completed by dr. Mueller. Any suggestions or help will be greatly appreciated. I'm extremely excited but also nervous I'm still going through the system. I have sharp as insurance.

        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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
