I am so bummed. I can't believe I go through all the classes, the surgeon opens up his July calendar for me to book my surgery on July 7th so I can still go on my vacation and everything is going great, when all of a sudden while on vacation I get sick. They thought it was strep throat but I'm not better after a round of antibiotics. Throat is still hurting, glands are swollen and sore and new symptom is swollen gums with sores in my mouth! Went to my primary care doctor today. He says he thinks it's viral and most likely a really bad case of mono! You got to be kidding me! And to top it off he says I am way to sick to have my surgery on Monday. I won't get well enough soon enough. I don't know what to make of it all. If I had the surgery on Monday it would have worked out

Perfectly for my schedule because I don't have to be back to work for 4 weeks. Ahhhh!

What a misfortunate streak of bad luck! Mono is NO fun and for it to throw off your surgery date... ARRGHHHH...

I was worried about timing, too because I have a vacation in Belize planned in August and didn't want to have my surgery too close to that date. The last week before surgery it seemed like there was a holdup in approval and that it might delay things. It did work out but I had a week of major stress in there.

Take time healing from the mono and don't try to push for the surgery. You really need to be as healthy as possible going into it. It may take another month or two but on the grand scheme of life, it's just a little speed bump and you'll get past it soon enough.

Best wishes!

Thanks all. I'm starting to feel a little better. I started taking antiviral medication a couple if days ago. I think they are working. Today's the first day I've really eaten all week.

I am so sorry this happened to you. I had surgery scheduled for July 2nd and I went to the hospital and I ended up having a low grade fever that got much higher right before surgery. They sent me home. I know how your feeling I am so sorry.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
