Anyone having surgery in Oct ?



Recommended Posts

So glad to hear that!!! It is interesting I am suppose to start Vitamins when I get home. Every program is so different.

So I got a summons to appear in court on the 26th and my surgery is the 21st. I am wondering if I am gonna feel up to it. We got called to testify against this guy that broke in the house next to ours.... I am like what! I did not think the bank would file charges but obviously they did. I will ask my surgeon on my surgery date what he thinks, but I am a bit concerned.

How did you all feel 5 days post op? I am also having a hernia repair.

I really hope Ron is okay! Did anyone reach out to his wife since her last post?

Funny you got a summons, so did my husband & I for a guy who stole prescription drugs out of our house. I'm far enough out from surgery it won't be a problem. I don't think you are going to feel like going to court. Call the court house & ask them what they need to not have to appear. Probably something from your Doctor. I still had some gas pains at 5 days, not terrible just uncomfortable, same with gas. Now I'm going through Constipation issues, a little tired but feeling pretty good & I'm 9 days out. Each day gets better! Your going to do great!! I'm planning on contacting Ron's wife sometime today, since this is the first day I have really felt like doing much. I will let you know what I hear!

I know I thought it was so weird that it is happening so close to my date. I am gonna email my surgeon on Monday.

Glad you are feeling better!

I had surgery Thursday and am still in the hospital. Was feeling pretty good but than all of sudden i was lite headed and weak. Hopefully tomorrow I can go home. Finally passing gas but no BM yet. Been taking Miralax each night so keep your fingers crossed.

I am Facebook friends with him. Myself and another BP'er commented on his wall, hoping a family member would see it. No comments yet. His brother-in-law posted about praying for him when it first happened but nothing since.

I sent an email to Ron's wife a few days after she posted here. Just sent well wishes, thoughts, prayers. I have not received an email back from her. I sure hope everything is ok.

I've been hanging out in here with you guys even though I didn't have a surgery date. Got it yesterday and now I am officially an October surgery. I'm scheduled Monday, October 26th! I'm excited and overwhelmed at the same time.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
