I do not know what is wrong with the quote feature on the site, but it is not working for me and has not been for a few days...

@beingdina Great news! Welcome to the thread and good luck on your pre-op phase! Your surgery will be here before you know it! Keep up the great work!

@andicapri@aol.com Welcome and good luck with your surgery! This site has been instrumental in my learning process, especially in hearing what people are going through and dealing with. As you have probably read, my surgery is on September 6th. Next week will be here before we know it and I'm getting nervous - I'm feeling like I'm not ready...

Well, the small bowel obstructions cannot really be helped. I never know what will get stuck on the scar tissue in my small intestines. This is one of the things that the other surgeon is supposed to fix in the same surgery as my sleeve. I'm confident that all will be well after next Thursday! Thank you for the concern, I appreciate it!

Welcome! There are a few people who have spoken up for that week, so I'm sure you will be able to find others for surgery buddies. Good luck on your pre-op phase and hang in there! Being nervous is natural.

      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!

        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!!
