April 2014 pre-op group



Recommended Posts

Hey my surgery is in April on the 22nd. When is yours? I am really excited but also very nervous. Currently I am on week two of my Optifast. It was hard for the first 3 days until I figured out what I could Dr. It up with. Better now. I use instant Decaf and tomorrow I will try some cocoa. Trying very hard.

April 3rd is my date. I took 2 days off before the surgery date. I wanted to take care of some last minute things and chill out before my big day. So far I haven't accomplished much... TV, the gym, and Protein drinks.. Lol...

All I know is April 7th cannot get here soon enough for me. Day 3 of liquids is better but will be glad when this phase is over and I can start my happy dance.

        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!!
