I hope they dont make you do the psych visit now.
Did they say you have anything else to do like blood work? I hope not and you are all set to go.

I doubt it i just got a call today from the surgery dept. They said everything was clear and good to go ... it wierd though they wont tell me the time until the day before 🤷🏻‍♀️

When I had my hysterectomy the doctor brought me sugar free gum to help with the gas. It was really bad and they dont let you go home until you pass gas. Just a suggestion if you want to try or can even get some.

I’m going through Kaiser South Bay with dr Kim.
I am scheduled for the 24th and she will call me back to figure out the other dates for pre op appointments. I have to do one in person meeting with him (pre op) then another phone visit with a nurse prior to surgery (plus I’m sure covid testing as well).

im so excited!!!!! It’s finally happening!!!!

I just called and Ontario still has not opened up Bariatric surgery. The waiting game is killing me.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
