Anyone scheduled for December yet?

  • Popular Post

I have a tentative VGS surgery date of December 14th. Anyone else scheduled for December yet? Lots of questions to come, I’m sure, but also looking for people to go through this together.

  • My surgery was scheduled for Dec. 11th, my doctor called me today because she had to reschedule but gave me the option to have Dec. 7th or Jan. Something! So, Dec 7th it is!!! So excited!

  • I received approval from my insurance company today; so, December the 6th is official for me. I am so grateful because I didn't want this to drag into the new year. There is already a waiting list for

OMG I couldn't. I can barely look at the drain coming out of me. Hubby just tucked me back in bed. I had a nice long walk, my liquid Percocet, and I peed on my own lol. I do believe I've earned a nap time. I cannot wait to be comfy in my own bed. I'm also having issues with eating anything other than water and ice chips. Hope that's goes away because the orange jello is my fave. How are you feeling?
So I had Gastric Bypass surgery on dec 7th. Got to go home the next day. Hardly any pain just gas and nausea but still not able to protein drinks yet just water and popsickles.

I have to have a hiatal hernia repaired as well

Well I can say... I have not had reflux in 2 days. So it is worth it. Reflux getting worse was my biggest concern but luckily I have a great surgeon!

My surgery got postponed AGAIN because te doctor's assistant (who calls herself a nurse, she is NOT!) kept neglecting to send tings to insurance, and se LOST 29 pages of my medical records I had sent directly to her from the Dietician back on Sept. 15th! They have confirmation she received them! I called the insurance company and she never sent them. When I called her, she said she never rec's them, I had the resent, the insurance then put it high priority but she is not taking responsibility, won't tell the Doctor and ask him to get me in this year before he goes on vacation. I have met all my deductibles and copays and this unprofessional nurse whom I have had to remind of every thing I had had to get done, make sleep assessment appt., make dietician appt., make Paychologist appt., etc., it is not my fault I keep getting delayed. Sorry, I am a little bumed and frustrated.
