Surgery Tomorrow, Feeling Anxious About Weird Things



Recommended Posts

Oh I promise not to, just a sick,threat, I get so discouraged by the slowness of it all. maybe I am like Cinderella waiting for the Prince to show up with my shoe, I want to return to to the ball and still dance,but scared nobody wants me at that dance. Am I going to be stuck forever with stuck on food to scrub. What if,he goes back to the palace to go to the bathroom and forgets to look for me anymore? I've developed a horrid hangnail on my scrubbing hand, and my manicure fairy godmother gave me,is shot.What's going to happen next?

Well maybe I can rock it after all? Now to find out whether it will be Dr Noria(female) or Dr Needleman(male, older and Department Head) and when this wonderous day can be? After the 24th many more answers will come. Its been such a l*o*n*g. journey, did you know I started seeking bariatric surgery in August 2015? Sometimes I fear I will die before I complete it. That frightens me more than anything else about the process💦. I would be willing to have only local anesthesia rather than to be refused again. But I should have courage things will go well for me after all, shouldn't I? Oh Ms Topaz i,weary of it all.

Frustr8 - you WILL have your Cinderella moment! I'm keeping the faith!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
