New surgery date sept 6



Recommended Posts

I don't have a surgery date yet, but my first consult with my surgeon with be August 29th. As far as the Pre Requisites. I don't have anything to begin on my part until 7 weeks before surgery bcuz I am not on hormones, I do not smoke or drink,and I do not take any type of diet pills. All I have to worry about is having the set up meetings with the dietitian, pre op lab work & pre testing & my last visit with my surgeon b4 surgery outside of any pre surgery support group meetings. But with my insurance deductble met, I hope to have it by November if not end of September.

And the day before will be Precious Pouch and my 1st Surgiversity,and yes She Still is a forceful presence in my life, but I now only weigh 188 pounds instead of the 365+ I embarked at, and no matter what others may say I am Very very Proud of me for staying the Course this Long! Either I am very committed or I fail to know any better, but I ABIDE as the Dude said in the B8G LOBOWSKI, yes I surely Do!

Hi Frustr8! It's been awhile since I've been on the forums, but I remember you were getting your surgery sometime around when I was and a bunch of us others who were active in the forums. How are you doing with your wls?

        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!!
