Surgery is tomorrow AND....



Recommended Posts

My surgery is in the morning and not only can I believe it's finally here but it sorta snuck up on me! At first I was so excited and I still am but after reading so many things about complications..even though I know everyone's outcome is different....I'm still freakin out! Some uplifting words of encouragement is really needed right now!

Don't read all the complications. Focus on your health and the reasons you decided to do it. You're in my thoughts tomorrow for a uncomplicated surgery and I can't wait to read your first post op post!!!

      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry 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!!
