I've had so much going on lately, I FORGOT about my preop appointment Friday. My surgery is June 3rd. I'm so scared I will have to reschedule surgery since I missed my appt, not to mention it's a short week. :0(

Sniff sniff.

Oh my goodness...

Well, I would imagine they don't want to lose all that $$$ they are going to make next week, but still - you are at their mercy!

Chalk it up to pre-op jitters, unless subconsciously you are not wanting to go through with this?

Keep us posted and hang in there!!!

It's a little bit of both, I think... And no preop diet, just the liquids the day before. I cannot believe this happened. Stuff of nightmares. The crazy thing is- I have ALL of my appointments on my phone, this one did NOT alert me like it should have. W T F!!!

Well hopefully they can squeeze you in somewhere... But also make sure that you are really ready for it, there is no shame in delaying a bit if you need too.. I only say that because you said you might be second guessing a bit.

Just call on Tuesday and hopefully they can squeeze you in somewhere, which they probably will. If they can't and your surgery has to be rescheduled, just remember- everything happens for a reason! Good luck!

I agree Mysti. And this week, myself and both my boys were dealing w the after effects of strep throat. We were all on antibiotics (the kids amoxicillin and me the penicillin shot to the tush). It was awful. I work part time & take care of both my children mainly on my own, so I'm ver organized.... This was very out of character. I have a very supportive husband but he works like crazy so I'm left picking up the slack.

Anyway don't want to sound like I'm complaining. I just cannot believe I did this.

What is really upsetting is that this is a new bariatric center. I believe I'm the first official patient. I feel AWFUL.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
