I have anxiety as well. I took my clonazapam the night before and they gave me one the night I was in the hospital. That first day you have surgery you will probably sleep a lot. You are going to do great...Don't sweat it!

Thank you so much stay in touch!

When is your surgery date?The hardest part about this to me was the first Few days of the liquid diet. The surgery was remarkable because I just new and had accepted that I was going to have several days of pain. That was not the case at all. Once you get past the gas , for me personally it was a huge sigh of relief. I am in no pain. I know this is not the case for everyone but for me I am just amazed. PLUS I had a lap band taken out. I hated that thing! So my surgery was a little more complicated Than just the gastric sleeve. I wish I had done this 15 years ago. It was not an option for me at the time. You re going to do great!

My surgery date is March 3rd so next Wednesday. My surgery will be a little complicated as well because I have to have a small mass removed so I will have a partial gastrectomy also. Thank you so much for your words of encouragement it means a lot.

      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!!
