I am in NOVA, also. I live in Woodbridge. My surgery date was just scheduled....July 17. It looks like we actually use the same surgical group.

Drat 5-6 weeks away. So excited for you!

Thanks! I am kind of scared. I have other health issues and I am really worried about going into this as well. I guess my concern is coming out ok....

This is my very first post here at BP. I live in Glen Allen (just outside of Richmond) and will be having my surgery at VCU Medical Center. I have not had the date set as of yet but it is looking like sometime in mid-September.

Hey VCU

There is a good GI up there - Puneet Puri - at VCU. Say namaste for me, if it wasn't too complicated I'd wear my saris up there.

      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!

        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!!
