I got the call. I have to be at the hospital at 5:00AM tomorrow. I am excited yet very nervous as I have never had any type of surgery before. Can't wait for this part to be over so I can start my journey to being healthier.

5am. Wow. Your surgery may have already been done before I even get to the hospital.[emoji3] .

I'm excited and nervous too. Already had the talk with myself, Why are you doing this again.

Thank you! I will have a heparin shot before surgery so I am not looking forward to that.
Thanks for the advice!
How are you feeling??

Well congratulations on having surgery, being dismissed so quickly which means you're recovering well. Now you will be starting a new phase of l8fe, may everything work well for you.

I can answer your visual problem, SCOPALAMINE it is notorious for just that, told my Doctor not to give me any, haven't had it for years, last time I swung Bipolar and wanted to kill myself, was going to jump out of a 6th floor window. Yeah weird but TRUE! I'm just ducky🐦 as long as I don't have THAT!

I had mine at 7am CT time today Jan 31st. When I got out I had really bad gas pains. First 5-6 hours were a little rough but after that barely any pain m. Just gas pain here n there. This wasn't bad at all :) Goodluck all!

That's good that you are seeing better.
Make sure your sips are small and walk every hour!

      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!!
