March 2016 sleevers ????



Recommended Posts

Hello All,

I received some bad news today. I fell the Sunday before MLK Day and my foot/leg has been bothering me. Today I went to see an orthopedic surgeon and found out I have ruptured my Achilles' tendon and fx my heel bone. I have to have surgery to fix this and it is scheduled for Monday. Unfortunately, this is the exact day I was scheduled for my sleeve. My sleeve has now been rescheduled for march 21...

Sorry to hear hopefully you have a speedy recovery

I got my date today March 1st I'm excited

Hi all!

I'm new here (first post!) and I've just secured an official surgery date for March 24th. At little nervous about it (okay, REALLY nervous!) just because surgery can be scary.

But also because my husband and I have a 3-year-old and she is our world. Just want everything to go well and know that I'm doing this not only for me, but for her.

I'm tempted to change my date to the 31st so I can spend one last Easter with her without being in recovery mode. But, we'll see if I can still be up for being an observer even if it's via a wheelchair.

Looking forward to becoming an active member in the forums!

      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry 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!!
