Hey everyone just trying to get all the September Sleevers together! I have my surgery September 30th. So when I wake up on the first of a new month I'll be a new person in the making let's all support and help one another!!

9/24.. Starte liquid. Diet today dizzy ,nausea

In the notes on pre-op diet from doctor, they stated to try and drink more fluids if nauseous or dizzy. Possible signs of dehydration. Hang in there, hopefully it will get better.

I had my surgery yesterday at 11am. The surgery went well. My pain level yesterday was pretty bad. I'm hoping for a much better day today. I leave in a little bit for my swallow test. If all goes well I can go home this evening, but I will probably stay one more night. Good luck to all of you on your surgery journey!

I'm on the 29th! Anyone else scheduled for then?

I am a September 30th surgery date as well, but still waiting for final insurance approval.

Yea my approval came in today so I am officially a September 30th sleever....excited and a tad bit nervous

Think of the diet like this...you don't do it, the doctor won't open you up and you'll still have to do it anyways. Sacrifice guys. It sucks ass..we all know it but you're better than drinking some liquids. You can do it.

It sucks big time but the end result is well worth it. You can do this.

I am having my surgery Sept 29th w at UH Parma Medical Center in Parma Ohio. A little nervous but looking forward to my new life! I am hoping to have my more energy and feel better! I am 54 yrs old with arthritis in my knees. It hurts to walk and do any exercise even water aerobics. I am ready to throw the old me out the window and start my new life! Here's to the future! Bring it on!!!!

Okay guys.. It is finally here! I check in tomorrow afternoon at 1:15pm.. I am excited and nervous all at the same time. I know my Doctor is great I have heard nothing but great things about him! Keep me in your prayers..

Keep us posted. Praying for you.

Just waiting for insurance approval. I attended the Preop class yesterday. The best class and information! That class was awesome, very informative, most helpful one yet. Still on liquids til surgery. Eek! But I can do this.

Good luck to everyone,

Hi ladies

How many days or weeks after surgery did your dr say you can go back to work?

My dr told me two weeks. I am a RN my job is more active and she thinks that would be the best.

Anyone September 30th??
