Hi ya'll! Greetings from sunny Virginia. October is just two months away and I'm so excited! My surgery is scheduled for October 6th, and I'm just freaking out with excitement, terror, and hope.

Can't wait to hear from other October RNY-ers.

@@amylynns, haha no! It's here in nc!

@@daron, heehee! Well, have fun!!

Well last week when Tricare approved me I received a oct 21st date. This morning I received a call from my doctors office to let me know they could move me up to this Tuesday! I rushed like crazy getting my preop testing today and I'm ready! I am so ready ????

Congratulations dc that is great news.

I have a confirmed date if 10/14 now. Moved it from 10/13. They held it up because of pathology from a polyp. All is good now though.

I finally have a date. OCTOBER 28. My first contact with my surgeon was November 7, 2013, so it has basically been a year since I started. In that time, I have had uterine cancer, more tests than I ever imagined. And now the time is actually near.

I've already been on the liquid diet for three weeks, and I will be on it until the day of surgery. (Three Protein drinks a day and raw veggies 2 x a day) That does not seem like enough food to me, but I am willing.

I don't have a lot of information on how this all happens. My pre-op appointment is not until October 24. Meanwhile, I wait. I am so happy about this.

I find this website to be extremely helpful. I thank all of you out there for sharing your experiences.

Great news!

Thanks Naynay!

welcome let me know how u feel afterward of course when your feeling up to getting online to chat I'm excited for you lol

my surgery is in a few hours, good luck to all and i'd like to know how everyone who already had it is feeling.

Good luck to all the 7ths!! First time smiling about an early morning lol

Can someone help me with this forum. How do you become friends on here. I have the app on my phone.

Feeling pretty good for day 2. No gas pains yet. Day after surgery is worse than the first day, the really good stuff has worn off, and all I've got is the pain pump.

The nurses seem worried that when I fall asleep my oxygen levels drop because I'm not taking big enough breaths. But big breaths hurt!!! So they've got me back on oxygen thingies up my nose.

Sleep is amazing, walking is fine, no ???? yet!

DaronB I'm in NC also. My surgery is on the 23rd.
