Is anyone else locking at a dec/ Jan surgery date who wants to be friends and support each other.


I'm scheduled for December 30. I would love to become friends and keep in touch.[emoji4]

Me! Hi! I hope for a January date. I have one more session to attend, have to schedule my EKG, blood work, and see my primary dr. in December, plus I have to see a specialist regarding my kidneys, but I hope to be get cleared for January.

Hello! I am hoping for a December/January surgery date. I meet the surgeon this coming Monday but I have already completed all of my insurance requirements. I might be crazy in thinking I could have the surgery scheduled for the next month or two but I’m hoping!

I am scheduled for Dec 23rd! When he offered the date I didn’t even realize that it was just 2 days before Christmas, I was just so happy to have it scheduled!

Hi everyone. I'm scheduled for December 3rd and the anxiety is killling me. I've never had any surgery before and I'm second-guessing everything.

Hi I just found this app today. I am scheduled for Gastric Bypass Surgery on Dec 10th. I am from Ontario. Canada and my surgery is covered by my provinces health care plan. I see alot of people posting about waiting for insurance approval, that has to be stressful!

I’m hoping for a January date. Going to PR in March, so would love to have as many weeks as possible under my belt. Luckily we’re still in a Villa with full kitchen.

I'm scheduled for Dec 31. I was hoping for mid-December but have decided the date is meant to be and I can start the new decade with my new tool. Talk about a new years resolution :)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
