Congratulations and wishing you the best!.

I am hoping for April, but dont have a date as of yet. I will know March 20th when I go to see my doctor. After much consideration I will discuss gastric bypass instead of the sleeve with my surgeon.

Hi, I just thought it would be cool to have others in the same month! It’s all good :)

I don’t plan to take off but a few days for work. I can just not lift heavy stuff. I am anxious for my time to get here!

Susie, I hope you get it for April! Keep me updated if you can. I’ll give an update, as well!

Thank you so much!! They said with my insurance I should know in about a week:) The Office knows that I am looking for surgery the week before our “spring break” so I have less time to take off from work. So about April 10th or so is what I am praying for!!

        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!!
