Surgery Dates for July



Recommended Posts

Well, here I am with my date for surgery and it's a lot further away than I had hoped but scheduled nonetheless. My date is July 3rd, 2013. I have my PreOp class on June 18th. They gave me two dates in June but both coincided with my sister's pregnancy dates (baby shower and birth) and since my mom will be taking care of both of us (in two different states) I waited on mine until July. It's not as quick as I had hoped but I'm glad it's scheduled and I'm on my way :-)

Blessings,

Chris

I started this process in January, finished everything in April and am still waiting for a date. My program is very slow. I had hoped for surgery in April, then May, and then June. Now I am praying for July! Hopefully I will be with you guys on the loser's bench.

I started orientation in july...all together it will be a year by surgery...the waiting sucked I had to keep stalking the surgery coordinator then called drs receptionist and then I got it...a lot of different hoops but it will be worth it :)

Hey guys! Sorry it has taken so long to respond. I've been consumed by funerals they last couple days. My cousins (22 & 23) were killed in an auto accident last Saturday. We buried them yesterday. Very trying and incredibly sad.

With that being said; I'm excited for surgery but just coming through this death process I question whether I'm making a sound decision for me and my family. Life is so precious and can't be over on the blink of an eye. Maybe I'm just still super emotional from the past several days and I hope it passes soon so I'm back on track.

Peace

      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!!
