Any February Surgery Dates Out There?



Recommended Posts

Just received my surgery date today! 2/22! Putting through insurance next week! Excited but all of a sudden nervous! Anxious about the insurance approval, the surgery itself, and life afterwards but my excitement certainly outweighs the worries. Would be great to find a few people going through it around the same time! ????

I'M WITH YA!! My date is Feb 10th - here goes nothin....

Yeah, still my excitement far outweighs my worries, that might change a bit in the coming weeks. I just came back from the gym after work, 40 min on treadmill and a buncha abdominals. Boy feels pretty good. I was 252 today, my highest has been 305lbs. I really want to go into surgery with a strong exercise routine going.

Ready or not we're going soon! How damn exciting, the best, pedro

Yeah it'll be helpful knowing you're going through it too. I will be out of work from the 10th to the 23rd going back to teach school on that Monday Feb 23rd (?), I'm a little worried about that but I can stay seated all day. This should be one heck of an adventure, I'll keep you posted

You guys, it's true, I need to stay in touch especially because hardly anyone in my little world will know. No one I work with, and only 3 family members. Yup, you guys, very very exciting. Yes, I do get a little nervous sometimes hearing the stories of follow up operations, gall bladder stuff, people's various discomforts, but I know I didn't sign on here for a cakewalk. That's why the next 25 days I want to hit the gym and walk as much as possible to go in as light and as toned as possible (chuckle, light and toned..), plus I will move heaven and earth to MAKE myself walk down those hospital hallways asap. We CAN and WILL do this thing!!! todo bien

I am right behind you with a March 3rd date. I hope I can sit at the cool kids table with you guys during this. I just finished my psych evaluation, had my first appointment with the dietitian. I am just waiting on some insurance stuff to go through, but all is looking good. It is all I can think about. I am keeping pretty quiet about it. I have not told social media yet, I am thinking about doing a video blog of the process. I am looking forward to hearing about your pre and post op's. Hoping this finds you well.

        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!!
