I had my surgery on Friday the 13th. The first night was tough finding the right meds to manage the pain and I also had a Migraine. I was also nauseous and vomited a lot. It was a rough night.

The next morning my doctor adjusted the meds and I have been doing well ever since.

I came home from the hospital yesterday. And I am doing well with the normal aches and pains.

Good luck to everyone.

Hey ladies - I’ve been absent a few days and way behind. My dad’s health has deteriorated and he’s been put in hospice. Just spending all the time I can with him and supporting my mom.

I’ll try and check in as I can.

Hey all ... had surgery on Tuesday to remove my band and possibly convert to sleeve. My scar tissue was way too much to do the sleeve and they had a lot of trouble getting the port part of the band to budge out. Post op pain has been horrible. Considering how much they had to manipulate the larger incision to get the port out, I’m suffering more than the usual patient. Not sure I still want to go through with the sleeve and have a fourth surgery. I am healing and recovering though and the freedom of no pain or acid reflux from the band has been great though!

Paperwork is officially submitted for insurance approval. Fingers crossed and if anyone has any extra patience to get me through the waiting, send it my way!

So tomorrow is the day.

😬😬😬

Just got my arrival time of 9:30am. Totally overcome with nerves. Wondering what the hell I am putting myself through. But I’ve got so much time and effort invested in this. I’m sure these are just pre-surgery jitters.

      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!!
