@ sjfink I know what you mean.. I have two appointments left. don't have a date for surgery yet. My office waits until the end.. I'm starting to get antsy.

Mine too. So frustrating.

What is all the talk about sleep study?

It seems SO many patients require it for insurance purposes.

I think it depends on your doc. I have no history of snoring or sleep apnea so I didn't need one.

Didn't need either. But had endoscopy.

I've admitted I snore badly and I've never been tested for sleep apnea but my insurance nor surgeon require a sleep test. I've had plenty of other hoops to jump through but not that one.

I snore really loud, that's all I'm waiting on now, is this in house sleep study, wish they hurry, I already 1visit with the nut, 2 visit with the psych Dr, had a upper GI, n upper endoscopy, n my first sleep study appointment, all of that in June. Next week I have my pre procedure testing(I don't know what tests are left) almost to home base!!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
