Recommended Posts

I was scheduled for April 13, then changed to May 11 ,then changed to May 15, then cancelled again. Now scheduled for May 29. I think it will happen since I had my anesthesia appointment and blood drawn. Am a little nervous and really looking forward to my covid test (NOT)!!!

Soooo....my surgeon requires a COVID-19 test done prior to my surgery in 5/15. I had it done yesterday. MY GOD. With everything going on right now...patients are not allowed in the medical offices here for testing. It was done in my car. I'm gripping the steering wheel..the inside roof of my car!! It was THE most horrible medical experience I've ever had to date. I really can't find the words. When it was over...I cried all the way home. Driving and crying.

It felt like a bleach and ammonia dipped hot pencil was stuck up my nose and into my brain! I swear its not an exaggeration. I just wanted to vent. I am hoping that I test negative. I have only been outside of my house twice and did everything I could to prevent my risk of exposure.

It's MY time!

Omg I have to do this Monday, now I’m scared🤣🤣

My surgery has not been scheduled yet. Everything is approved, but I am told there is a 6-8 week waiting list now because of the covid-19 virus. I am so anxious to get this done! I hate having to wait indefinitely.

My original surgery date was April 27th, but was postponed til June 8th. I honestly thought they were going to push it back way further than this, so not too bad. I've got 3 weeks and 1 day to go!

I have admittedly gained some weight back as well. I am getting a new battery for my kitchen scale and getting back on track. We got this!

      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!!
