I have to check in at the hospital at 530am[emoji51] and surgery is scheduled for 730am, gonna pack a hospital bag tomorrow and clean the house so when I come home I don’t feel terrible about not helping with kids and chores. My essentials will be toothbrush, robe, slippers, and comfy clothes, and lib balm. Oh also a lanyard... my surgeon makes us have a drain for a week and everyone says that hooking the drain to a lanyard helps with hands free.

Just checking in how did everyone do? I had GBS dec. 5th, and got to come home the next day! First day was very painful and now I’m feeling much better. Just walking and sipping.

I had mine done the 5th too! They required a 2 night stay which annoyed me but there wasn’t anything I could do about it so I just sucked it up. My worst day so far was yesterday, a small headache, lots of nausea and just plain felt crappy. Today is so much better! I was able to get in 40oz of Water in yesterday (after leaving the hospital at 1pm) and already at 30oz today so I’m happy that’s going well too!

I had mine done the 5th too. Was in one day..then back the next night because of severe dehydration and vomiting and nausea. He is keeping me in for 3 days checking on a bunch stuff. Today over the course of the day I drank my first liquids (the best salty chicken broth) Im pretty sure it came from a powder but it was amazing! Off liquid pain meds as they make me sick, but managing. Just keep moving forward, right?

I got my drain and staples taken out today one incision is alittle irritated no pus just red and draining fluids so they put me on some horse pills of antibiotics but then seem to be going down good so far. Life is 100% better with out those things! And on to full liquids. Cream Soup and cottage cheese never tasted so good!!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
