Hi everyone, I've just started my process. I have done the psych eval, initial visit, nutritional consultation, and have gathered my history. I would like a bariatric buddy, and I also have some questions about pre op stuff. :-)

Strange, it's taking me such a long time to do my appointments because they are apparently booked up. I have my first nutrition appointment December 15th and i cant even schedule a psych appointment til after nutrition appointment, according to my surgeons plan. Also I have a sleep study scheduled for December 22. I started this whole process beginning of October. Ive seen pulmonologist , had barium swallow study, labs already. November 18th I have endoscopy done. Im soooo nervous that after all of these appointments (which are all over 45 minute drive) that my surgery will be denied by my insurance. I'm praying it gets approved and also that I won't have to do six whole months of nutrition appointments. If thats the case, it would be AT LEAST May before i would have the surgery. Ugh. I want this like YESTERDAY!!!!

      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!!
