It went well. When I finally became conscious I kept saying that I had to pee. I tried but it didn't happen. The second time was a success. My nurse wanted me to walk but I protested and made a deal. The next time I walked. This was at 10pm. I've been walking every since. I did great. I was hitting milestones before time. They gave me an once of Water the next. Easy pease. I went home Saturday. Yesterday was the worse for. In the hospital I guess my body fought the gas. Laying on my side probably helped a lot. Being home I do feel the gas I lay on my side. I'm doing better than yesterday

I'm scheduled for next Friday, 12/23, but I didn't get cleared by my primary on Friday, as planned. During pre-op testing my A1C was over 10 (diabetes #) and my blood sugar was about 246, too high. I told them I had been having trouble getting my insurance to pay for my Metformin. When I got to my doctor, he called the surgeon, who was in surgery. My surgeon called back soon and said it was ok to clear me, then called back again to tell my primary to wait. Now, I have to get my blood sugar down by Wednesday, otherwise my surgery will be cancelled/ rescheduled. So, please, I could really use some positive vibes. At least I got my meds, which was a bit of an ordeal itself, and my blood sugar is now heading to lower #s.

      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!!
