Congrats LMarie!

So glad to hear a positive story!

I am using Dr Hargroder in Baton Rouge. I think he is in with Dr Bellanger?

planning on having it done at Crystal pointe.

Did he have you do a pre-op? Are you nauseous? any anesthesia issues?

Thanks so much!

Hi Vicki! Yes I used dr bellanger at st Elizabeth's hospital and the staff was unbelievable. I just had to do 1 small Breakfast, and clear liquid the rest of the day for the day prior to surgery! I feel good now. Just trying to figure out how much to drink and when! Anesthesia gave me a very sore throat and I'm still drowsy but no nausea really. At the moment I can't tolerate anything cold or flavored so I'm only drinking room temp Water. I will try to work on Protein tomorrow.

I haven't had my surgery yet, but trying to be prepared. What does the listening strips do for you?

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
