October Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, just checking in. Got to come home Wednesday morning. Been sooooo sore, but actually feeling a little better today. Have tried to walk around the house and have sat outside and enjoyed the pretty weather. Trying to sip as much as I can, but I just don't care for anything. Hubby says he's getting me out of the house tomorrow, he's been great thru all this.

Its official I'm having my surgery on the 30th. I've known that date for a while but didn't want to say cuz I wasn't sure it was going to happen. I had to find the money to pay for it cuz my insurance doesn't cover it. Well after a lot of work and worrying I found it and it is officially official. Pre op is on the 24th, EDG on the 25th, and surgery on the 30th. I'm so excited but the nerves or kicking in now.

Yes my date is October 29th & even though I've been on this journey for a while. It seem so surreal because its finally about to happen. I don't know why I'm getting a little nervous though is this normal for anyone else?

Welcome.

Dear God please give me strength!!! I really want to cry right now. My Husband made tacos for him and my Mom (who's here visiting and helping). This is just pure torcher. I just want to eat something so bad!!! I'm not even hungry. I don't know that I'm strong enough to make it some days.

Oh you are!! You will be able to have that again, just not now. My sister brought my husband and sons Casey's pizza tonight for supper and it was ruff but I made it. They felt so bad they were going to eat in in the garage but I said I can overcome!! I did!

Hey it's normal to get nervous' date=' I sure did. The closer it got the more nervous I became, but once I got their and was in the process I calmed down after waiting so long to go into surgery, so it gets better. Pray about though. So glad that you have a date though. Just stay posted here because there are plenty of support. Good day!

      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!
