Congrats to you. I dealt with the nausea...not fun but once it was gone it hasn't come back since. Hope you feel better tomorrow.

So I had my 1 week post op appt today and was given the ok to start on soft foods. I was so excited to finally eat something lol. I had a scrambled egg when I got home. I was good but definitely felt weird going down. I couldn't quite finish the whole egg in one sitting. This will take some getting used to.

I had my surgery through So Cal Kaiser (Fontana) on March 5th. I had a wonderful experience and loved my surgeon. If you have the opportunity to have Dr. Chin, do it!
I started options last October, graduated The beginning of January, had surgery in March. To give a timeline.
Be sure to stay on top of appointments because they are really strict about us taking our health into our own hands and will not bug us for appointments. If you miss their call, CALL THEM BACK! They will not keep trying.
Best of luck and I am happy to answer any questions.

I’m meeting with Dr Chin in two days! Hoping to get my surgery date. Eeeeek.

        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!!
