Recommended Posts

Hi there I am a new, however I believe my date will be in September as I've already started this journey with my doctors

I am looking for someone to go through this journey with as I am so apprehensive, excited and scared all at the same time

Like you I also feel obsessed with the topic I am constantly on my ipad

I have a ready gone to a seminar a support group and several doctors have already given clearance I just need a date now

I live in Long Island NewYork but my mom lives in delray beach. Is that anywhere near u?

My family doesn't support my decision and I could really use a buddy to go through this with!!

I plan one week off and 2nd week working from home. It's a "behind computer" and on conference calls job so I should be fine.

I'm either overly-optimistic, or totally unrealistic - I'm having my surgery on Friday, 9/18 and I plan to back at my "desk" on Tuesday, 9/22. My BFF had the surgery early December and that was what she did. I have the luxury of being able to work from home, hence my aggressive "back-to-work" timeline.

I had an ovary removed four years ago and I took a week off, and then worked from home two additional weeks.

I would love to hear from anyone who thinks I'm delirious in my timeline.

I'm scheduled for September 21. Just started the process. I must say that I am a bit scared. Not of the surgery but of failing. This is the last resort and the surgery isn't reversible. I am sure that I will get past this, but......

To all of you who just joined this thread welcome!

Pastano it does take a bit to get used to the navigation, if someone responds to a comment they will usually "Quote" it, so you will see the original comment and then their reply below it, I hope that helps you.

steph99, plevine0359,& lorralei Welcome! We also have a fb group if you want to be included either post or send me your email. Although we have both going at the same time we all still post in here as well. I highly recommend taking the time to go back thru this thread (all 40+ pages) and reading what is already posted, it will give you a good idea of where we are all at.

I understand your hesitation. I really recommend watching a lot of youtube videos and reading thru this forum. It really helped me a lot to see and hear what others have experienced.

As a member of this thread and our new FB secret group we share great stuff here but we've become truly friends with each other on the FB page. Even with support from our families, nothing compares to the support of others going thru almost identical preparation and near the same timeline. It's great!

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
