Sucks for you and many others whose surgery has been cancelled.

I wouldn't say the country is losing it's mind though, more of case of being practical to protect patients and staff as well as ensuring beds may be availabile for victims of the virus if needed.

That's dreadful! I'm so sorry to hear that. I was so excited when I got my surgery date and I went into it without any fear. I know how you must feel.

But please stay on your diet. I was put on a diet the day I got my surgery date and I didn't cheat at all. I found my weight loss before surgery was FASTER than my weight loss after surgery! Go figure!

Good luck my friend.... you WILL have this surgery. Meantime, D-I-E-T :) You have to diet after surgery anyway!!

Best,

Grace

The country is saving lives by postponing elective surgeries. Fighting Coronavirus needs every piece of personal protection equipment for treating infected people and testing. Every elective surgery uses 5-6 sets of gloves, gowns, face masks. So you can feel good that your couple months delay in getting WLS is helping our nation fight deadly pandemic and saving lives.

      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!!
