I just had my endoscopy today and it went well, it really is simple and painless. Feels like your taking a nap for sure and no pain afterwards. Scariest part for me was being put to sleep cause I get paranoid lol

I use a cpap machine already so the only thing I had to do is be in compliance of using it so if you have one or are put on one be sure to use it daily and they will require you to bring it to the hospital when you have surgery to use afterwards

How did everyone do with their preoperative appointments? Was there any issues? I'm getting ready to have my endoscopy and sleep study done and I'm a little nervous.

I have my sleep study appointment in Tuesday. I had my endoscopy and it went just fine. Good luck!

I'm in Austin I was sleeved on Thursday Nov 5th. Everything is going well. First two days were toughest. Surgery was outpatient. I'm home sipping on broths Soups Water popsicle etc. They did a hernia repair and that keeps me with fits of hiccups but other than that I'm good. Walking a lot. Haven't taken any pain meds since Saturday morning.

      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.
