September sleevers



Recommended Posts

Hi,

Anyone else having their gastric sleeve done in September?

I start the pre-op diet in four weeks so starting to look for others going through this around the same time

How are you going with the lead up?

I am almost certain that I will be getting the surgery on September 9th. I will be confirming tomorrow with my surgeon. We were just waiting on echo cardiogram/stress test. I had that on Friday and cardiologist didn't see anything, so I think its a go!

Do you have a date yet?

What is your pre-op diet?

I am excited for us!

Excellent news that the cardiologist didn't see anything! that must be such a relief for you? .... hopefully you can confirm the 9th tomorrow and everything goes smoothly with that appointment 🌻

I'm getting mine done on the 17th (hopefully) ... date's changed twice already but that's the current plan.

Pre-op diet is the Protein Shakes twice a day, then 100g of lean meat plus lots of starch fee vegetables for dinner .... very glad I'm not on full liquid as many are although I guess it will happen soon enough anyway 😀 Do you know what's involved for your pre-op diet yet?

        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!!
