I'm very close to Cincinnati in Middletown I have my surgery 12/12 with Dr. Trace Curry. I would love to meet people in this area who are going through the process or people who have been there and have wisdom about the process.

Just now saw your post...we should keep in touch since we're so close and have close surgery dates and the same surgeon. Are you having your surgery at Journeylite or at Jewish?

Recovery is going very well, I never had any pain or any nausea or anything. Of course I'm on puréed right now and sometimes I feel like I can eat and drink more than I am supposed to be able to. How about you, how is your recovery going?

I'm doing great! I had a lot of nausea at first but it has subsided and I'm doing better. I'm on puréed right now too and am having trouble drinking enough throughout the day but otherwise doing well.

Hello, I am getting a vsg on 2/13 from Dr Curry. I was wondering if one of you ladies could tell me if they put you under for the EDG?

Hi RLHgetsVSG! Congrats on your surgery! Yes,they do put you to sleep for the EGD. I went in to the surgery suite,was put to sleep, had procedure and in recovery in 20 minutes! Dr. Curry removed a polyp from my esophagus as well. He is an amazing surgeon!

Hopefully your pain eases, but it makes sense if you bend wrong or stand up too fast. I will have to try to keep that in mind.

I am through JourneyLite, Dr. Trace Curry.

What kind of pre-op diet were you on?

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
