WLS in My Dreams...

I dreamt that I went to Mx for my surgery. That all the commonly used surgeons were there to perform my surgery.

My surgery went well and I had no leaks.

After I was released to the hotel I tried drinking diet Pepsi and started to panic. I couldn't find the surgeons. Only other WLS patients telling me I screwed up. Then I woke up. Sigh...

Omg! I had almost the same exact dream!

I had a dream that I wanted pain pills because i was in severe pain and I kept them near at all times. My whole dream was about those damn pain meds....

In my VSG dreams, everyone is naked. The whole surgical team. Oh sure, they have on masks and gloves, but otherwise, buck ass naked.

Lol! I don't even drink pop anymore.... That's part of the absurdity of the dream!!!

My dream was really strange. I was in Mexico with my Mom and little sister. We all three were waiting to get sleeved. My Mom went first, and my sister decided not to do it. I was waiting and waiting for my turn, and finally I went in for surgery. Then I remember going under anesthesia (this is in my dream, so it was like a dream within a dream... Yeah, some inception stuff right there) but I went under, and everything was all white and fuzzy, I thought that I was in heaven. I thought that I passed away during surgery... It was so weird. Then I woke up in my dream and realized I survived the surgery. Then I woke up in real life... Lol

Lol I've yet to have an actual dream about the surgery but there have been mornings where I wake up in a sort of panic grabbing my stomach, expecting to be in pain thinking I've had the surgery. It's always a disappointment when I fully wake up and realize I haven't had the surgery yet.

My dream was weird and a little scary too. I woke from surgery and was super. I watched some guy next to me whine about everything (I remember thinking in my dream that he was being such a baby) but then he truly started having major issues and I had to watch while they worked a code...I woke up terrified. Lol guess my slight fears were magnified in my dream.

Our subconscious is rather powerful, isn't it?

My friend had a dream that when we went to Mexico her four children were kidnapped. No dreams about the surgery yet for either one of us. And No, her children are not coming with us LOL

Had another WLS dream last night! Lol I was supposed to be discussing my surgery with Dr. Ortiz at OCC, but he was Dr. Drew.... You know, drug rehab Dr. Drew. Haha

I was trying to talk to him about prices and he was going to do my surgery for $1000 if I could get 2 more people to schedule surgeries also.

After I was released to the hotel I tried drinking diet Pepsi and started to panic. I couldn't find the surgeons. Only other WLS patients telling me I screwed up. Then I woke up. Sigh...

I'm starting to have weird dreams too! I dreamt that I had the VSG, but a mean nurse took over my case and discharged me that same day. So I got home, and then for some reason without even thinking, I ate a sh** ton of RAW broccoli!! (which I would never to in real life btw, heh heh.) But then immediately I realized oh crap, I just had surgery what am I doing?!! I tried to call the hospital and say, "um, I was just there....so uh, can you let me back in?" The mean nurse said no. :wacko:

As the date gets closer the dreams are becoming more frequent for me. Not always bad dreams. Sometimes they are just odd.

Lol! He could help you postop with any addiction replacement.

All joking aside, addiction replacement scares me. It seems like its happening to my uncle. I plan to join OEA next week to start getting my head in the right place and keep it there.
