I've seen topics where members having surgery in the same month have kinda banded together to offer support and encouragement to one another. I think this is a wonderful idea, and I'd like to see if there's anyone having surgery in March that would like to support one another.

I have a tentative date for the second or third week in March. I have UHC through Georgia Pacific and they use BRS for approvals. I don't expect any delays, nor does my surgeon's office, so she saved me a spot, so to speak, lol.

Tonight I have my psyc eval, and Monday is my information class, I have two more visits, 2/5 and 3/5 of my six month supervised diet, and on March 5th when I leave my PCP's office, I'll take my worksheet to the surgeon and we'll submit to insurance. That's where I'm at!

I'd love to talk with others that are looking at the same time frame as me!!

I've been doing house work and laundry getting ready for Monday morning. I have to be there at 5:15 AM for a 7:15 surgery. Ready to get this ball rolling. Excited, nervous you name it. Snow tomorrow--supposed to get a massage. Thought that would be good for stress. Hope we can get to the hospital Monday morning.

My surgery date is Thursday 3/28/13...:-) excited (operation new me in motion)

Good luck ladies!!

How talk are you? My GW is 128 per docs :/

12 hour post op and all is well. Right now my biggest pain is sore throat due to tube in throat durning surgery. Walking the halls ice chips have kept me going. Start liquid diet in 5 hours. Thanks for the well wishes. Woke up in the or after surgery to the surgical team singing me happy birthday. They had decorated my chart and gown with birthday stickers. It was nice.

That is really nice of them! Must have put a smile in your face.

I just got home wednesday. Surgery was Monday. Pain meds didn't like me made me sick. I have been feeling amazing!!! walking and following everything. Today I feel dizzy and starving. What have I done wrong ? I have had all my water and protein even though the protein makes ne a little sick. Help pls!

You probably did not do ANYTHING wrong! You're body went through a lot, and has to readjust it's normal rhythms. If you are truly concerned, my dear, call your Dr's office and ask those questions.
