Okay so I'm 19 years old and have PCOS, high insulin, and might even have problem with my thyroid soon due to family genes! I'm absolutely nervous about the whole thing and my nerves are going crazy! My family and friends support me 100% because I've tried alone and due to having PCOS and high insulin I gain weight for nothing. :(

I'm 2 months away from having my surgery! And I'm terrified! Is there anyone out there that has any ideas on how to keep calm before? Obviously I can't see a therapist because I have to get cleared by one and I don't think having anxiety problem will help my case. Lol.

Anyone else have any ideas? Or stories that will help me?

Hi girl,

Don't be scared...I was the same, had diabetes, anxiety, the whole mess...

I had surgery on December 11, and the worry was much worse than the surgery!!! I had limited amount of pain, was able to eat to pureee within one week, and I feel better and healthier than ever before! I have diabetes, and have been able to go off of all medication including insulin.

this is a wonderful opportunity, and will make your life better and healthier :-)

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
