Rescheduled Mini Gastric Bypass



Recommended Posts

Yesterday I was admitted for my mini gastric bypass and after waiting all night and day (the hospital admits the night before) I was told my surgery needed to be rescheduled because of a patient needing emergency surgery. My first response I was disappointed but then I hoped that the person who needed the surgery survived. My surgeon immediately rescheduled me for Monday October 10 (I am admitted Sunday night). I learned so much on what to expect at the hospital from my 24 hour admission. I packed to many nightgowns,they provided all toiletries , bring a book because I could not sleep and have a bag fill of patience. October 4 is only a couple of days away and I am much more ready now than before.

What a wonderful attitude you have about this delay. How nice that your thoughts are for the person needing the emergency surgery rather than ranting and raving after I am sure being on a pre-op diet etc. Good luck to you next week and let us know how it goes.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
