I don't know. I'm waiting on the surgeon. My IV pump is driving me insane right now, some alarm is going off and they won't come in and turn it off. I'm about to throw it out the window.

Just found out my surgery was moved up two hours which is wonderful because I was really not looking forward to having dry mouth for that long and hearing my stomach gurgle. I told my 9 year old today in a very generic way and she is ok with it. Thankfully! Usually she is clingy with me and a drama queen. Now I have to pack, take my before pictures, and take my measurements. My stomach is a mess! I feel kind of weepy and nostalgic and sad. I guess just saying good bye to my old life that I was comfortable with is hard even though I know the future is going to be so much better!

Good luck on you journey to your new life

Yea those things can definitely drive a person nuts.. I used to hit the silent button if they didn't come soon enough... they would yell at me for it but sorry I can not & will not sit & listen to tht noise for forever. I would hit the silent button & then press the call button like crazy lol!

I can't find a silent button, I wish!

I have to stay again tonight. After everything UHC put me through for the last two years I'm kind of glad they have to pay for an extra day, the bastards.

Cracked me up about UHC having to pay for an extra night. Hope tonight is better for you and you don't throw the pump out the window.

Well I'm all kinds of funny. My husband and j have a weird sense of humor. I asked him yesterday if it would be ok to say to my surgeon "it was a pleasure having you inside me." He said no. Lol. Hey it could have been worse!

OMG, you'd fit right in with me and my BFF. We've been friends since college and have the same type of sense of humor. Hope you get to go home today and feel better!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
