Any new surgery dates yet?

My surgery was scheduled for April 15 but was postponed without a new date. Has anyone gotten a new date yet?

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.

I was scheduled for March, it got cancelled now am scheduled for June 4th

@Cassidy_23Yay! Congrats! Mine is June 3rd! Are you getting the vsg or gastric?


VSG

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!
