-- Last Appt 3/25 (history/physical), Surgery 3/26 --



Recommended Posts

I'm getting more excited every day!

Just wondering if anything can possibly happen in the "history/physical" appointment with my PCP tomorrow?? It's the last step of this process and I am so paranoid.

This is just a 30 min or less appointment, correct? There is no way I can screw it up, can I?

Thanks for humoring my CRAZY!!!

As long as you are not sick, or something weird and new has popped up it should be no big deal.

My appointment was easy peasy. I don't know why I work myself up so much. Last hurdle complete!

My husband and I are staying in a hotel tonight near the hospital. My surgery was switched from 8:00 to 9:30, so at least we can sleep a little longer. As if I'm going to sleep!

I'm doing well in my room now. I was given s spinal thing for pain so no pain pump until tomorrow. So I'm still seeing double and falling to sleep often. I've walked around twice. I'm not getting discharged until Saturday 3/28 and told my husband not to come back until then. GL to all with surgery this week!

Using sponge applicator for Water so I don't gulp. Ask for mouth spray, too. I'm itchy EVERYWHERE so I keep getting Benadryl.

I am so afraid of the gulping when I am thirsty. Especially when I am working out hard. Totally freaks me out.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
