Your I great hands! Good choice and good luck to you!

Thank You! I am so excited but nervous at the same time? Did you have your procedure with him? If you did how was your experience?

I did! On the 18th of this month. It was a great experience, everyone was very friendly and welcoming. Everyone speaks English except for the nurses, but it's easy to communicate for the most part! The biggest tip I could give you is to take GasX strips with you! You will be so thankful you did! And I am so glad my sleeve sister did, because I needed them. Lol. They give you a run down of everything that will occur, you will not be blindsided by anything. Dr. Aceves and Dr. Campos have amazing bed side manor. The anastesiologoist (sp) is amazing, hospital was very clean and nice, and so was the hotel.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
