It seems like since I've started the process for this surgery it's been one thing after another and in the last two weeks things have came crashing down! First thing that happened my friend decided she wasn't going to watch my son and instead of telling me she just avoided me. It's been problem after problem but today I've finally had it. I was suppose to have my medicine by today. I called the pharmacy I won't get my medication, some of it pre-op meds, until Tuesday. My surgery is on Monday... I'm so stressed out! I'm going to have to make the 5-6 hour trip home with no pain meds and hope they can give me my pre-op meds in the hospital. I'm sorry to vent it just seems like it's been one thing after another! I'm hoping nothing else happens otherwise I might be tempted to cancel and go on!

Im so sorry that you are experiencing all of these challenges, I do hope things change for you soon, as your surgeon about your pan meds because mine was filled at the hospital before I left and they were even cheaper. Good luck my friend and perhaps your friend is getting insecure about your new you. Congrats on your choice in being healthy.

I was hoping they would just give me a prescription after surgery but my doctor only goes through certain pharmacies then they are supposed to send them out fedex 2 days. Well that didn't happen. They sent them out yesterday and didn't use two day :( so the medication will arrive the day after surgery and I won't be home :( thank you so much for your kind words! I'm going to really try and look at the bright side of things and stay optimistic! I hope nothing else goes wrong though :(

Well he gave me a prescription but I couldn't get it filled anywhere so I just dealt with the trip home. I'm overall pretty disappointed in this whole process but happy the surgery is done and I'm home!

      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! 😞
