Anyone getting banded in Nov?



Recommended Posts

My surgery date is 11/7. I met with the surgeon yesterday from True Results in Scottsdale. I'm very nervous but excited!

I think we were in the same group session- yesterday at 130?!

Yes! I was there yesterday at 1:30. How did your pre-op consultation go with the surgeon?

Good except they threw a cure ball at me! He wanted cardiac clearance! Grrr so I spent the rest of the day in a panic trying to find a cardiologist that could get me in before the 8th. I was lucky I found one and got the clearance today!

I am too close to get denied again! The insurance company denied me in Aug for gaining 1.8lbs so I had more hoops I had to jump through!

How are you doing with the pre-op diet? I'm positive yours is not as long as mine is! :)

I'm glad everything worked out for you! I'm on the one week pre-op diet so I started today, it's been okay so far. How's yours going?

I'll definitely let you know how it goes. I think he said his date was on the 8th, so you may see him there.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food 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!!
