Surgery in a few hours!



Recommended Posts

Hey guys! So I’m up early (4am here) so that I can get to the hospital at 5:30 for check in. I am a bundle of nerves, and even have quite the turning tummy! I hope it goes away once I get there! Anyways, I appreciate any prayers and well wishes for today. This is my first surgery ever! So I’m not sure what to expect. I can’t wait to join everyone on the losers bench! I’ve been working towards this for so long!! Well thank you guys and I will check back in later and let you all know how it went!! 🌟💜🌟

AshAsh, forward bravely. You know you can do this, center yourself on what is ahead and what you know you must do. You trust your surgeon, put your life calmly and peacefully into his care, you know he and his staff will keep you safe until you awake on the other side. No 💦just Joy for the future.

Thanks everyone! I’ve been so sleepy so it’s been tough to get on here! So yesterday was a little rough. Had a lot of nausea, even threw up once. Had very little pain at all. But today I woke up a new woman! I have little to no pain with the meds and I have no nausea. I’ve been up around walking and prefer sitting in my chair to the bed. The only bad thing is that I have to do the swallow test twice and I failed twice. For some reason my stomach is too swollen and it won’t leave the esophagus so that is my goal. Still no Water so I can’t wait to get some!! Thank you everyone for your positive vibes and prayers!!

        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!!
