Surgery yesterday at 1130 didn't happen until 1pm. Found a hiatual hernia and repaired it. 8 hours in recovery. Pain and nausea are pretty intense but hey, I am alive.

Hello! I just got my date of September 20th! I start a no/low carb diet on Friday the 6th. I am SO nervous/anxious. I am using Dr Paul Macik and will be at Atlanta Northside Hospital.

Mine is September 13th. Just went through pre-op test and meeting with the nutritionist and doctor. I am so nervous.

Glad you made it through ok. I hope you feel better each day. Keep us posted.

Im the 16th too!

Me too! The 16th is a good day.

I need some help... After a 2 year fight with insurance and doctors my surgery was approved last week and I'm set to go for the 16th. I'm 24 years old and keeping it private. I've told my boyfriend (my biggest support), my cousin who will be at the hospital with us and my mother. My father is remarried to a horrible woman who has bad a problem with me and my brother since day one. On the other hand she holds my insurance. My mother told me this morning that she's so stressed out that I am not telling my father and if I don't tell him then she's going to! This is personal and I'm 24 years old! I told her she does not have my consent to tell him and that I will never trust her again (she's pulled this crap with me before). What do I do?! Can she legally do this to me? I'm so angry that she's doing this to me after knowing my fight! His wife can just pull the insurance coverage on me and then what? I'm so upset.

The 16 will be a GREAT day..its my 22 year old twin sons birthday and my surgery date..back in the same hospital, same floor..exactly 22 years to date and I havent been in a hospital over night since then, so if its another 22 years before it happens again I will be fine with that!! Good luck everyone!
