16 days out of surgery.

I had internal bleeding after surgery and almost ended up getting a blood transfusion after a emergency endoscopy to fix the problem. It was a scary thing and kept me in the hospital for 3 days but now I'm doing okay for the most part. I do have some on and off pain on my right side and my bottom lip is still a little numb from the endoscopy. I'm 16 days post-op.

Hello. I'm happy to hear you're feeling better!

I'm scheduled for surgery May 25th. Preparing my mind for it.

It's definitely life changing. I know I'm losing weight but I still can't imagine myself smaller than I ever been. Good luck to you.

Thank you! I'm expecting an emotional rollercoaster; however, I plan to focus on the reason why I chose to have surgery.
