Tijuana Roll Call - Surgeries Scheduled for Feb18th-Feb 23rd



Recommended Posts

Anyone else going to be at the Marriott sometime during the week Feb.17-25? Maybe we can plan nightly "meet-ups" and sit together while we sip our broth!!

My surgery is Thursday, Feb. 21st with Dr. Fernando Garcia.

JeniM73,

I'm so sorry to hear that you won't be at the Marriott! But we'll have lots of time to talk while we walk the halls at Mi Doctor.

Feb 18th-23rd Sleevers.... our time has come!!

Do you think we should set up a couple of "get-together" times now? Like maybe 12 noon lunch (broth), 3 pm happy hour (popsicle), and 6 pm dinner (broth)? Then..whoever feels up to joining us would know to meet in the lobby at that time. It's just a suggestion... if anyone has any other ideas for getting together while we are recovering (or...for that first day at the hotel before surgery), please let us know.

BTW... I asked Alma about other surgeries on Thursday and found out that there are a total of four for Dr. Garcia.

See you all very soon!

Martha

      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!
