All done my pre op requirements. The Surgeon's Nurse called me yesterday but got my machine. Hoping she has good news for me and will call today! Hoping for June 1st RNY. Fingers crossed!!

Ok! Scheduled for 6/1. I have a whole pre op day scheduled for 5/26. Will meet with Anesthesia, the Surgeon and go to a Group Nutrition class for pre ops. That's a week before the surgery date , so it doesn't seem like I'll have a liquid pre op diet week or two.

I am scheduled for RNY 6/30 as long as insurance approves after I finish my 3 month diet. Really need as many mentor/buddies as I can get, very nervous.

Alright, alright! Our June crew is shaping up. Let's keep in touch. I welcome the support as I am doing this alone. I'm divorced. Adult kids live far away. No current Boyfriend. I haven't shared this with anyone and I prefer it that way.

I'm June 7. Revising from lap-band which was removed on March 16. The process has taken well over a year. It feels a little surreal now that it's really getting close.

@@waterwoman, I agree. I started the process in October and June seemed far away. Now that surgery is in 3 weeks, it definitely feels surreal. I have all this nervous energy. Heck, I'm completely redecorating my bedroom. New furniture, linens, paint, carpeting, the works. I feel like I'm nesting!

I worry about weird things, like what if I'm that one person that the surgery doesn't work for or what if I have complications and I can't go back to work as scheduled? I have to work, I'm my sole support. What if all my hair falls out? Gosh, I just need to get this done and be on the other side!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
