I've had a really rough day too. When people talk about their holiday plans I become resentful that I can't make plans because of recovery time... Mad at myself for being fat and in this position.

Yes, inconveniencing my family and also spending all our money. I'm paying out of pocket and we are scraping by for Christmas as a result. Oh well, I know it'll be worth it for them to have a more active, longer living mother and wife. Just wish it hadn't come to this.

I know what u mean... I've kept myself busy since 6am today by getting my hair braided which took 6 hours. Then I got rid of all the clothes in my closet & rearranged my bedroom. I brought a few new outfits in smaller sizes!

I have had a rough two days! Surgery on Tuesday they call me on Friday at 3:30 and tell me that I need to pay nearly $4000.00 before surgery. I am just devastated as I do not have that just readily available. I have to complete my scope procedure Monday but if can't get it paid why do I need to do that. So I am in a pickle do I continue with liquid diet or eat? I am going to beyond mad if I have given 11 days of my life up only not to have surgery. Need some advice fast please. Been trying to handle this but emotion is getting the best of me now.

I can't even imagine how your feeling! Is it something to do with insurance or the hospital? My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Oh my.... Sorry to hear of this.... Why would they wait so long to tell you this like everyone just has lots of money at their disposal. Do you have any access checks from a credit card you can use, or can you get a credit line increase on a credit card, apply for a loan 1st thing Monday morning. I know you're devastated. I would stay on the liquids just incase you can pull it off. Wish you much luck!

I asked the same thing why so they did not talk to me sooner. We started this process in March. Applied for medical loan on Friday and stayed on liquid diet. We will see on Monday.

I can't believe they waited all this time to tell you that? Wish I had some ready answers, but I don't. Insurance will not cover it?

      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!!
