April Dates

Is it too early to start an April thread? I didn't see one yet.

I'm scheduled for April 22. I still have to finish PCP clearance and psych then insurance approval but don't anticipate any problems. Once I started my appointments the excitement and anxiety kicked in. I started 6 month supervised diet in August....this used to seem so far away and like a vague idea but its so real now. My anxiety is double as my husband's date is march 18 and I worry a lot more about him than myself. How are all the other April folks doing?

Thanks for the well wishes![/quote']

You will do great. Keep us posted as soon as you can! It is real now!

Just ordered my last meal before my one week liquid diet... sushi! I know this is something I will never be able to eat again, because the bites are too big...

My best friend had a bypass 6 years ago. She eats sushi all the time. I wouldn't worry about that.

Hope "things" are ok! She DID say everywhere! :)

She did! I think you need to be super clear when dealing with others....sensitive bits. I'm not putting it ...there, tonight though. I wash with regular soap then put that on. You know...It makes me itch and dries my skin. Ashy, no nail polish, no makeup, NO BRA. I hope I look better coming outta this than going in.

My fluid has been out of my lap band for three weeks so I have been eating sushi like crazy because I could not eat sushi at all with the band.

Thanks so much for doing the updating. Haven't felt the greatest and am on good pain meds which makes it hard! You can take it over if you want! :)

Sure, no problem! ;)

Ok so ive not been feeling good since last monday sore throat and coughing thursday i had my egd and since then havent been able to sleep because my cough is so bad i thought it was just from being sick but now im realizing its only when i lay down :( could it be something with my band?? I am going to the dr tomorrow just don't know if i need to go to my reg dr or lapband dr ....... sitting in my recliner for the night hoping i can finally get some sleep after 4 days of no sleep

Could be that you cough when laying down due to postnasal drip. Do you have runny nose, congestion etc? I hope you get some relief soon. It is no fun not being able to sleep! If I were you, I would start with regular doctor.

I had gotten allergies a few weeks ago that turned into a cold that seemed to get better for a few days then suddenly got worse and turned into an upper respiratory infection. On antibiotics now. Hope I am all cleared up soon or they will not do surgery...

I am hoping that our April 1st'ers are doing great today. Very excited to see some posts when they are feeling well enough! Fingers crossed for no pain and great success!
