Surgery scheduled!



Recommended Posts

Went today for my final preop appt and got the date set for October 31! I'm also having gallbladder surgery the same day so I get to hit the liver reduction diet even harder.

Glad to be in the final stretch!

Best wishes Daron! I too was as BSNC, but due to insurance requirement I ended up having to transfer to Duke in month 5 of my 6 month pre-op wait. Very, very frustrating but I'm keeping my weight/bmi checks with BSNC b/c I was already scheduled with them and to keep all the paperwork consistent. I was with Dr. Bruce. My last visit with them in Oct 17th and then I'll fax my last ppwk to duke that afternoon and hope they can submit to insurance beginning of that next week so I can get on the books!

I'm hoping to be sleeved no later than Nov. 22nd b/c that's when all my labs/work-ups I did with BSNC expire (I read somewhere about a 6 month validation).

My surgery is November 3rd and I am also having my gallbladder removed as well as having a hiatal hernia repaired. I started this process almost a year ago and I am so happy to finally be in the home stretch. Best of luck to you in your surgery!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
